Permissionless peer-to-peer membership removes the bound on compute scale
Key Challenges in Building Decentralized AI Infrastructure | AI / ALL Summit (Sahara AI)
“If you want to unlock true decentralization you have to develop techniques to overcome Sybil attacks… we looked at just the sheer amount of compute availability a single company or single entity could have — there’s a limit, there’s a bound. If you want to remove that bound you have to be able to have a peer-to-peer mechanism where the access and permission or membership to the cluster doesn’t require a permission… and the foundation for that is verification.” — 00:05:42
