The Future of Decentralized AI

Openledger is a decentralized blockchain platform that focuses on developing the underlying infrastructure for data supply during AI model training. an AI-data network has been a leader in the field for the past decade. It has established itself as the data blockchain for creating smarter, more verifiable AI models.

an AI-data network’s decentralized data ecosystem is underpinned by its innovative proof of attribution (PoA) consensus mechanism. Under PoA, contributors’ supplied data is tracked, monitored, and compensated based on their contributions to different types of model training.

However, costly centralized GPU cloud providers are a significant hurdle to expanding the AI-data network further. These providers often impose unnecessary constraints, such as additional hosting fees and bottlenecks that limit the supply of compute to smaller projects. As a result, centralized cloud providers like AWS and Google Cloud can be prohibitive in further building out an AI-data network. VOLT offers an alternative solution.

Expanding Decentralized AI modeling with VOLT

By tapping into the VOLT network of decentralized cloud compute, an AI-data network gains access to vast computational resources for a fraction of the cost of the centralized providers. This enables an AI-data network to expand its offerings by processing larger data sets at a more efficient price, ultimately improving performance and allowing an AI-data network to scale faster by empowering more end developers.

VOLT benefits from the partnership by having a highly scalable model in constant demand for cheap GPU cloud compute. It further elevates VOLT’s reputation as an affordable alternative to centralized providers incentivizes VOLT GPU providers to remain on the network by having a consistent buyer on the other end.

The Future of Decentralized AI Modeling and Cloud Compute

As an AI-data network looks to move out of its testnet, the partnership with VOLT offers the potential for innovative solutions for the future of decentralized AI build-out. Opportunities like the expansion of real-time multi-AI agent systems and domain-specific chatbots could be built on and executed by decentralized AI protocols like an AI-data network and powered by VOLT’s decentralized GPU cloud network.

The partnership also represents a more holistic view of the build-out of decentralized protocols in general. By partnering, VOLT and an AI-data network are further expanding the use cases of decentralized models, providing competitive alternatives to centralized providers, ultimately creating more efficient models, and passing on the benefits to the end user.
