The AI ​​industry suffers from monopolistic control by centralized companies, which negatively affects startups and ordinary users. However, web3 technologies such as DePIN can step in and democratize the AI ​​sector. 🌐💻

In this session, we spoke with Rock Zhang, founder of Network3, about DePIN's role in the AI ​​industry, EdgeAI, and the potential for collaboration between these technologies.

Rock Zhang is the founder of Network3, AI Layer2, which uses DePIN to help AI developers scale models. He is also the founder of Rock TechX, a platform that makes people's digital lives more secure.

With Network3, it is trying to level the playing field by building the AI ​​Layer2 network for the AI ​​industry. He believes that the combination of DePIN and AI will allow small models to be trained using simple and idle devices at the edge of the network, democratizing the field of AI.

DePIN decentralizes the AI ​​sector by distributing data processing across multiple devices at the edge of the network. In this way, DePIN can directly contribute to the development of EdgeAI and its capabilities.

Network3 is an AI Layer2 that provides services to AI developers around the world. Our protocol allows users to contribute to AI training by trading internet bandwidth, IP address, data sets, and device computing power for tokenized rewards.

Network3 combines privacy-aware computing, network-edge computing, and federated learning to train AI models.

I believe the DePIN-EdgeAI synergy has the potential to radically transform our digital lives. This will allow AI-based startups and internet users to collaborate and work towards creating a human-centric and intelligent technological future.
