Can Crypto Find a Purpose? A Blockchain Approach to Optimizing Neural Networks

Authors: Igor Arsenin and Arturas Vaitaitis Can Crypto Find a Purpose? A Blockchain Approach to Optimizing Neural Networks As training ever-larger transformer-based models encounters diminishing returns, a novel blockchain protocol could advance AI by emphasizing the optimization of neural network architectures, harnessing the decentralized computational power of blockchain technology. The innovative protocol would replace arbitrary decryption tasks in the proof-of-work concept with a focus on enhancing benchmark scores of AI models on standardized datasets, utilizing interfaces like the Open Neural Network Exchange (ONNX) protocol to define architectures. The economic potential of blockchain technology could draw a diverse range of players into the field, sparking a competitive drive for the development of more efficient and effective neural networks, potentially giving blockchain a purpose beyond digital currency while democratizing the field of AI. The remarkable progress in large l
