Decentralized AI Model

Introduction

The evolution of artificial intelligence (AI) is at a pivotal juncture, driven by centralized marketplaces such as AWS, GCP, Azure, and GitHub. Despite their contributions, these platforms present significant obstacles, including prohibitive costs, restricted monetization options, limited user control, and reproducibility issues. Additionally, advancing AI technologies face inherent challenges:

  1. Demand for Extensive Data and Compute Resources: Progress in AI requires substantial data and computing power, traditionally dependent on centralized entities.

  2. Privacy and Security Concerns: The centralized storage and processing of data and models raise serious privacy issues and vulnerability to attacks or misuse.

  3. Model Verification and Validation Complexities: Ensuring the accuracy, fairness, and absence of biases in AI models remains a formidable task.

Cluster Protocol's Solutions:

To overcome these barriers, Cluster Protocol introduces a groundbreaking decentralized framework designed to democratize AI development:

  • Decentralized Compute Access: By enabling a network of nodes to share or rent out their idle computing resources, Cluster Protocol provides an economical alternative to traditional centralized compute resources.

  • Enhanced Data Privacy with FHE: Utilizing Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE), the protocol ensures the privacy and security of data during processing.

  • Proof of Compute (PoC) for Model Integrity: Incorporating a Proof of Compute mechanism, Cluster Protocol offers a robust solution for the verification and validation of AI models.

AI Model Training Problems

In training Ai models, defining or measuring tasks algorithmically is challenging due to their reliance on subjective, context-specific human values and expectations that are difficult to encapsulate in a predefined reward function.

Solution: Cluster Protocol addresses this by aggregating human feedback on AI outputs to train a reward model. This model predicts the quality of outputs based on human standards, effectively bridging the gap between algorithmic evaluation and human judgment.
