OriginTrail Wins Best Project at MIT Decentralized AI Summit

Ljubljana, Slovenia, October 17th, 2024, Chainwire

OriginTrail, an ecosystem dedicated to ensuring a secure internet in the AI era through its decentralized knowledge graph, has been awarded the title of best project at the esteemed MIT Decentralized AI Summit. This summit, hosted at the MIT Media Lab, gathered leading innovators, researchers, and industry experts to discuss the future of decentralized AI technologies.

OriginTrail’s decentralized knowledge graph, powered by Polkadot, serves as essential infrastructure for tackling some of the internet’s significant issues in the age of AI, including misinformation, deep fakes, fake news, and unreliable AI technology broadly. The innovative strategy to foster trust in AI garnered attention among various demonstrations at the summit, resulting in it being voted as the standout project by attendees. This accolade underscores the anticipated influence of OriginTrail on advancing the mainstream adoption of both AI and Web3 technologies across a variety of sectors, including Real World Assets (RWA) in global supply chains, Decentralized Physical Infrastructure (DePIN) that connects the knowledge of organizations and individuals, and enhancements aimed at refining AI models via federated access to training data.

“We are incredibly pleased to see that OriginTrail is progressing in the direction recognized as cutting edge by leading industry figures. I was particularly eager to hear numerous speakers stress the significance of deploying AI solutions at the network’s edge, where sustainable resource usage and privacy-preserving data management can be integrated. OriginTrail has been focused on enabling this capability for the past year, and we look forward to introducing it on October 24th at DKGcon in Amsterdam with the launch of the DKG Edge node. I would like to extend my gratitude to the participants who voted OriginTrail as the best project of the DecAI Summit; it is a tremendous endorsement of our future endeavors.” – Branimir Rakic, Founder of OriginTrail.

As the limitations of current AI solutions become increasingly clear, the demand for reliable AI solutions developed at the intersection of Web3 and AI continues to rise. OriginTrail is committed to leading this movement by promoting the widespread adoption of this vital infrastructure to ensure a safe internet in the AI age.
