Decentralized computing network io.net has teamed up with Injective, a Layer 1 blockchain made for finance. Together, they’re looking to integrate Injective’s iAgent AI framework with io.net’s GPU compute network.
“This partnership shows our shared goal of providing practical solutions for developers and engineers,” said Tausif Ahmed, the Chief Business Development Officer at io.net. “By combining our decentralized infrastructure with Injective’s AI tools, we plan to tackle major challenges in AI and blockchain. Our aim is to lower the barriers for builders everywhere,” he added.
Injective is a fast, interoperable blockchain that supports the creation of advanced Web3 finance applications. It offers developers a variety of powerful modules to help them build innovative decentralized applications, or dApps.
The iAgent is Injective’s first AI-driven software development kit (SDK). It allows users to integrate AI functions into blockchain operations. By using large language models, like OpenAI, iAgent lets users perform tasks such as sending payments and executing trades through AI commands. This SDK was launched to the public on November 19th.
This collaboration aims to push forward the intersection of decentralized computing and artificial intelligence. io.net’s distributed infrastructure boasts over 10,000 GPUs and CPUs. The partnership seeks to provide AI professionals with the tools they need to train, fine-tune, and deploy machine learning models using decentralized resources.
As part of their work together, both organizations will explore how Injective’s iAgent can connect with io.net’s GPU network to boost computational power. They will also look into how io.net’s GPU pricing and data feeds might fit into future financial products developed by Injective.
“AI on the blockchain has really taken off in recent months. We’re excited to see more people adopting iAgent to bring AI on-chain,” said Eric Chen, CEO and Co-Founder of Injective Labs. “With io.net’s support and their decentralized platform, we can expand the use cases and innovations in the growing DeFAI sector,” he added.
io.net is a decentralized physical infrastructure network (DePIN) that provides on-demand GPU clusters from various locations. Right now, io.net offers access to hundreds of thousands of GPUs, designed for low-latency, high-processing tasks like AI operations and cloud gaming. By making GPU compute capacity more accessible, io.net helps reduce costs, speed up processes, and give engineers and businesses more options.
Recently, io.net partnered with Alpha Network to create a secure environment for AI and Web3 applications. This collaboration focuses on solving data security challenges while making AI infrastructure easier to access. The goal is to help developers build reliable dApps.
