TREE NEWS update: Tether has introduced BotPsy, an 800-million-parameter AI assistant designed to manage everyday tasks locally on a phone, outperforming models 2.5 times its size at controlling the device. The launch marks a further expansion of the stablecoin issuer’s push into decentralized artificial intelligence.
Tether’s BotPsy AI Agent Outperforms Larger Models at Phone Control
Tether's move into on-device AI is a notable pivot for a stablecoin issuer, and the efficiency claim — beating models 2.5 times larger at phone control — is the real story, since local execution sidesteps cloud dependency and its privacy and latency costs. It affects developers building phone-based agents and rivals betting on scale over compactness. Whether BotPsy's benchmark edge holds outside controlled tests, and how Tether's decentralized-AI push fits its core stablecoin business, are the open questions worth watching.
