Ljubljana, Slovenia, October 17th, 2024, Chainwire

OriginTrail, an ecosystem focused on creating a secure internet in the AI era with its decentralized knowledge graph, has been recognized as the best project at the esteemed MIT Decentralized AI Summit. Hosted at the MIT Media Lab, the summit gathered leading innovators, researchers, and industry pioneers to discuss the future of decentralized AI technologies.

The event featured a packed agenda with contributions from representatives of Dell, Intel, NVIDIA, and other prominent AI firms. During his presentation, the founder of OriginTrail, Branimir Rakic, emphasized how OriginTrail’s decentralized knowledge graph, empowered by Polkadot, serves as a vital infrastructure for tackling significant online challenges in the AI era—including misinformation, deep fakes, misleading news, and the reliability of AI as a whole. This innovative approach aimed at enhancing trust in AI distinguished it among numerous exhibits at the summit, leading to its selection as the best project by the attendees. This accolade underscores OriginTrail’s significant role in promoting mainstream acceptance of AI and Web3 technologies across various sectors, including Real World Assets (RWA) in global supply chains, Decentralized Physical Infrastructure (DePIN) that connects organizational and individual knowledge, and advancements in refining AI models through collective access to training data.

“We are excited to see OriginTrail evolving in line with what many industry leaders recognize as the forefront of innovation. I was particularly thrilled to hear numerous speakers point out the significance of implementing AI solutions at the network’s edge, where sustainable resource utilization and privacy-preserving data management can be realized. This is something that OriginTrail has been actively developing over the past year, and we look forward to unveiling it next week (Oct 24th) at the DKGcon in Amsterdam with the launch of the DKG Edge node. I would also like to express my gratitude to the event participants who chose OriginTrail as the best project at the DecAI Summit; it is a wonderful endorsement of our future endeavors.” – Branimir Rakic, Founder at OriginTrail.

As the limitations of current AI technologies become increasingly clear, the need for trustworthy AI solutions designed at the intersection of Web3 and AI continues to rise. OriginTrail is committed to leading this effort by fostering the widespread adoption of this essential infrastructure to facilitate a safe internet in the AI age.
