Bittensor's Subnet 62 Agent Claims Near-Parity With Claude Code at Lower Cost

A decentralized AI network says its coding agent nearly matches Claude Code's performance while running on cheaper compute — an early signal for the open-source compute layer.

The decentralized AI network Bittensor is making a bold claim: an agent running on Subnet 62, developed by Ridges AI, can "almost beat Claude Code" at coding tasks while operating at significantly lower cost, according to @FinanceFreeman. The claim lacks independent verification and specific benchmark numbers, so it should be treated with appropriate skepticism.
