Build: OS acts as proving system
Partner: GPU providers, GPU hosting platforms, compute platforms, ranked by price/electricity cost/efficiency/reliability | | | Verification | Know exactly which model or agent produced which result that can be reproduced | Mistral and European governments endorsing a semi-open model with on-prem service | Smart Cities
Societal use cases (transportation, logistics, manufacturing, humanoid automation) | Agent accountability framework | Partner/Incubate: Public knows which model is in use and track accountability end-to-end from 0G storage, training, inference to payment settlement | | | Privacy-preservation
| FHE, ZK, etc. technologies preserve privacy including bringing your private data for public consumption
True ownership | Nvidia Flare for hospitals to train one model across proprietary data
Users retain ownership of data | Federated training
Higher quality models trained from proprietary data sets
| 0G storage private data to 0G serving for private training | Build: from data to training end-to-end blockchain flow
Partner: ZK, TEE, FHE providers | | | Censorship resistance | No single points of failure / resilience
Community determines how a model evolves and avoids OpenAI self censorship
Overcome proprietary data vaults | Trust in OpenAI lower than any other big tech aws failing > outage of system
Twitter sabotaging users’ legal right to export data | Uptime SLA guarantee
| Decentralized rail ensuring 100% uptime
ITO lets community have a say in models
BYOD - bring your own data | Build: router with fallback mechanism to ensure no single point of failure
Build: model listing, cluster listing, and data listing mechanisms, just mechanisms
Partner: model providers, cluster providers, data providers | | | Security | Transparency and consistent monitoring for tempering like data poisoning (esp. via incentives)
Monitor for malicious training data and bias
AI models auditing and monitoring smart contracts | Inference observability companies like Arthur.ai now need to offer training observability
AI has been used in cyber-security for decades |
Determining community standards to define bias (it’s all relative to the community in subject)
AI for smart contracts | 0G rails are decentralized, global, and community-driven in nature | Build: 0G’s ITO and foundation governance gives communities a voice
Partner: provide decentralized models to smart contract auditing companies | | | UX Automation (AI supporting Web3) | Abstracting away poor UX like bridges and wallets
Bots and NPCs for onchain gaming
