Decentralized AI training is emerging as a solution to the significant energy consumption and carbon footprint associated with large AI models. This approach distributes the training process across a network of independent nodes, leveraging existing compute power rather than relying solely on massive, centralized data centers. Companies are developing new networking hardware and marketplaces for GPU-as-a-Service to facilitate this distributed model, while techniques like federated learning are being adapted to manage the software complexities.
