Intellistake investment talks Genesis-1 satellite

INTELLISTAKE SHARES TECHNOLOGY UPDATE ON ORBIT AI GENESIS-1 SATELLITE

Intellistake Technologies Corp. has provided a technology update regarding the Orbit AI Genesis-1 satellite.

Since its deployment on Dec. 10, Genesis-1 has been actively operating in orbit and running a 2.6-billion-parameter artificial intelligence model. The satellite is equipped with an Nvidia AI core and is currently performing real-time analysis of infrared remote sensing data.

Key highlights:

  • Orbit AI's Genesis-1 satellite is operational and performing real-time AI analysis in orbit, demonstrating active deployment of its platform, in which Intellistake holds a strategic equity position.
  • The satellite runs a 2.6-billion-parameter AI model onboard, reducing transmission bandwidth requirements by up to 99 per cent and enabling low-latency decision making in space.
  • By processing data directly in orbit rather than relying solely on large, centralized ground-based data centres, Genesis-1 reduces dependence on a single control point and reflects a broader shift toward more distributed AI infrastructure.
  • Intellistake is evaluating the potential contribution of blockchain-based verification infrastructure to the planned Genesis-2 mission (subject to agreement on terms, engineering and regulatory approvals).

Instead of transmitting large volumes of raw satellite data back to Earth for processing, Genesis-1 analyzes information directly in space and sends back only the results. According to Orbit AI, this approach reduces response times from hours to seconds and lowers transmission bandwidth requirements by up to 99 per cent.

Genesis-1 demonstrates that advanced AI systems can operate as active decision-making platforms in orbit rather than relying entirely on ground-based data centres.

AI model scale context

The Genesis-1 satellite operates a 2.6-billion-parameter AI model. In artificial intelligence systems, a parameter is a learned weight inside a neural network. The total number of parameters broadly reflects how much information a model can store, how complex the patterns it can learn are, and how capable it is at tasks such as reasoning, language understanding and generation.

Models in the two-billion-to-three-billion-parameter range are widely deployed for efficient, real-time applications. Examples at a similar scale include:

  • Meta's LLaMA-3.2 3B;
  • Google's Gemma 2B;
  • Research models such as OPT-2.7B and GPT-NeoX 2.7B.

This places Genesis-1 within the range of modern, production-level AI systems. By operating directly in orbit rather than relying solely on large data centres on Earth, it demonstrates how AI can function beyond a single centralized location.

Jason Dussault, chief executive officer of Intellistake, commented: "What we're seeing here is AI operating beyond traditional Earth-based infrastructure. Real-time decision making in orbit changes how satellite systems can function. As AI expands into new operating environments, reliable verification and transparency will become increasingly important."

Patrick Zhou, chief executive officer of Smartlink AI, added: "Genesis-1 is already in orbit and actively performing real-time AI analysis on a satellite. This demonstrates that meaningful intelligence can operate beyond Earth-based infrastructure, with reduced latency and bandwidth requirements. Our focus has always been on proving capability first. Genesis-1 is that proof, and it shows what becomes possible when compute and decision making move directly into orbit."

Strategic context for Intellistake

Intellistake previously completed a $500,000 (U.S.) strategic equity investment in Orbit AI.

The continued live operation of Genesis-1 confirms that Orbit AI's AI system is functioning as intended in orbit. Genesis-1 represents the first operational node in Orbit AI's planned orbital architecture, with development progressing toward the next mission, Genesis-2.

As AI systems begin operating beyond traditional terrestrial infrastructure, reliable methods to validate performance and ensure data integrity may become increasingly relevant. Intellistake continues to evaluate how blockchain-based verification infrastructure could integrate into future missions, subject to engineering feasibility and regulatory approvals.

The company cautions that certain operational metrics referenced herein are based on information provided by Orbit AI and have not been independently verified. Discussions regarding expanded or preferred collaboration frameworks remain continuing and may not result in definitive agreements. Intellistake will continue to monitor progress and will provide additional updates as warranted.
