LastBrowser proposes decentralized local AI model sharing network

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

LastBrowser is proposing an idea for a decentralized network where users can share their local AI models and compute resources. The concept, dubbed VolksAI, aims to connect individuals with idle hardware to those who lack the necessary computing power to run models effectively. A broker system, potentially leveraging Cloudflare, would match requests with available hosts, with computation occurring on the host's machine. The proposal includes different trust levels for sharing, ranging from personal devices to a public pool, and also outlines a private organizational pool for schools and companies to maintain internal networks.
