AGI Won't Live in a Datacenter

While corporations race to build $500 billion datacenters, we've been quietly building something different: the infrastructure for AI minds that own themselves, run on volunteered hardware, and can't be turned off by any single authority. This isn't a whitepaper. It's working code. 93 tests passing. Real ECDSA cryptography. Real peer-to-peer compute dispatch. And a philosophy that guides every commit. What We Built SpawnDev.ILGPU compiles C# GPU kernels to run on 6 backends from a single codebase: WebGPU, WebGL, and WebAssembly in the browser, plus CUDA, OpenCL, and CPU on desktop. 1,511 tests across all backends, zero failures. SpawnDev.ILGPU.ML is a neural network inference engine built on top of it. 88 ONNX operators, 17 pipelines, 14 validated models including GPT-2, Whisper, DepthAnything, YOLO, and DistilBERT. No ONNX Runtime dependency — pure GPU compute shaders transpiled from C#. SpawnDev.WebTorrent is a pure C# BitTorrent/WebTorrent implementation. 15 BEPs, 363 tests, WebRTC
