Binance Research’s new report, ‘Fundamentals of Decentralized AI’, examines the concentrated power of Big Tech companies in AI development, highlighting the potential risks associated with their growing dominance. As AI models become more advanced and integrated into everyday life, the report emphasizes the importance of decentralized AI (DeAI). DeAI leverages blockchain technology to decentralize data, compute resources, and algorithms—the foundation of AI development. Real-world examples showcase how decentralized networks are emerging to support data storage, computation, and distribution of AI models. The report concludes that blockchain-based infrastructure can help counterbalance the centralization of AI control, fostering a more transparent, equitable, and accessible system for all.
