A $5 million grant program will be funded by the charitable Dfinity Foundation to support the development and enhancement of AI applications. The DeAI, or Decentralized AI, will be this.

There are 4 financing tiers for the program: $5,000, $25,000, $50,000, and $100,000. The $100,000 grant will be given to the development business that completes the task, and all other funds will be paid out in ICP (Internet Computer Protocol) tokens.

The goal of the project is to combine blockchain and artificial intelligence

Decentralized artificial intelligence is an AI system that does not function on one central server or node, but is distributed across multiple devices or computers. Instead of having one single point of control, DII operates based on a network of devices called a Distributed Ledger. This ensures that the failure of a single node will not bring down the entire system, and it will be more resilient to attacks and failures.

The use of decentralized artificial intelligence can increase the level of security, reliability and transparency of the system. DII can operate in the absence of centralized control, which can be particularly useful in areas that require a high level of trust and a low likelihood of conflicts of interest.

DII can be useful for a wide variety of fields, such as finance, medicine, logistics, education, and many others. It can significantly improve decision-making processes, increase the efficiency and accuracy of operations, and provide a more open and democratic environment for the various participants. In addition, DII can be used to automate complex tasks that require large amounts of data and computational resources, which increases the efficiency of the system as a whole.

Dominic Williams asserts that despite what many businesses claim, blockchain does not now offer decentralized artificial intelligence. Instead, their wallets are connected with services like chatGPT.

The first decentralized Sonic exchange from Dfinity Foundation was introduced by Internet Computer in January. The business then released Chain-Key Bitcoin, a token backed by one bitcoin.

Dominic Williams stated, “We are searching for serious applicants who are really interested in this application and who are able to use the computing blocks of Internet Computer to work with artificial intelligence.

Demail, a decentralized email service, Itoka, an AI-based music creation platform, are just some of the projects that Dfinity’s CEO says are already using artificial intelligence on the Internet Computer blockchain.

Internet Computer’s blockchain will be able to act as an independent cloud, which will help AI models to be completely decentralized and run only on the blockchain, and this will eliminate the need for cloud giant data centers like Amazon, Google, Alibaba, Microsoft.

More than 200 developers participated in the creation of decentralized software that will enable bitcoin transactions on the Internet Computer blockchain at the BUIDL Bitcoin Developer Forum, organized in May by the Dfinity Foundation.

According to the Dfinity Foundation team, training AI models on an internet computer has a number of benefits, including transparency and publicity of the network, reliable results and safe execution of the AI’s work.

AI application development is also important for medical AI, where it will be particularly important that models and responses remain error-free if the goal is to create a model that will make extensive medical recommendations. But developers still have a long way to go before decentralized applications become secure and productive.

Data security

Decentralized AI requires strong security measures because it can be used to process and transmit sensitive data. Ensuring protection against cyberattacks, misuse, and unauthorized access is a top priority.


Scalability and performance

When dealing with decentralized systems, there are scalability challenges. Since different nodes in the network must cooperate to solve complex problems, efficient allocation of computational resources and load management must be ensured.

The distribution of data processing and possible communication delays between network nodes will also affect the performance of DII.


Consensus and consistency management

In decentralized AI systems, there is a question of how to achieve consensus among nodes in decision making and how to handle disagreements. Efficient consensus algorithms and consistency management mechanisms are needed.

Harmonization of standards, including legal standards

Decentralized AI may face legal and ethical issues related to liability, transparency, and data management. Standards and protocols need to be developed for interactions between different participants and devices in the network. Data formats, information exchange methods, security protocols, and consensus mechanisms need to be harmonized. The lack of a common standard can lead to network fragmentation and make interoperability and collaboration between different participants difficult.

Effective training

Training decentralized AI is a very challenging task, especially due to the distributed nature of the data and the need for multiple nodes to work towards a common goal. Learning algorithms also need to be aligned and synchronized to achieve high performance.

Interaction with centralized systems

Decentralized artificial intelligence must effectively interact with existing centralized systems that may already be widely available in the market. However, such interoperability can be a challenge due to differences in architecture, communication protocols, and information processing approaches.

The issue of compatibility and integration between decentralized and centralized systems arises. Developers need to enable interoperability so that users can benefit from both systems and get consistent results.

For example, if decentralized AI is used in the context of financial transactions, it must be able to securely integrate with banking systems or payment gateways, which are often centralized. This requires the development of standards and protocols that allow both parties to exchange data and manage processes securely and efficiently.

In addition, existing centralized systems may be outdated and not ready to integrate with decentralized technologies. In this case, developers of decentralized AI may need to adapt them to modern standards and take into account the peculiarities of interaction with centralized systems.

One of the technical challenges is to ensure data synchronization and information exchange between different systems operating in different environments. For successful integration, it is necessary to solve the problems of harmonizing data, structures and formats.

Finally, from a business and economic perspective, developers of decentralized AI must consider the advantages and disadvantages of different ownership and control models of data and technologies.
