Four automated accounts touch the homeserver and two of them differed by one character, which caused real confusion (a bot appearing to announce itself; the steward unable to post in a room it had been asked to report to). This records the distinction rather than leaving it to be rediscovered. Power belongs to @inference-admin, voice belongs to @inferencebot, and @inference-admin never speaks in a member room. @inference-bot is being retired: its room power was transferred to @inference-admin, which is now administrator of record for #general, #community, #design, #skillshare, #updates and #infrastructure. Also records the one live dependency that blocks finishing: the portal's member invites still authenticate as the old account via MATRIX_BOT_TOKEN, so that has to be repointed before its credentials are revoked. Without this written down the next person would revoke the token and silently break member invites. Verified while writing: the portal's token hashes to the old account's device VYQDYBXULA, which is also the unexplained python-httpx client seen using that account today.
Inference Cooperative
AI, governed together.
The Inference Cooperative is a member-governed project providing private AI inference. Members pay dues on a sliding scale and, in return, get private AI chat and API access through shared, cooperatively governed infrastructure. We are fiscally sponsored by Metagov, a nonprofit, and funded through our Open Collective.
