  • Building AI on Blockchain: Decentralization & Trust | Max Li (Columbia University, OORT)
    2025/06/19

    "Would you upload all your private information like your bank statement, your personal ID to ChatGPT?"This crucial question from Dr. Max Li highlights the fundamental trust barrier hindering the massive adoption of AI agents in our daily lives.In this episode, host Srikumar Misra sits down with Dr. Max Li, Adjunct Professor at Columbia University and Founder & CEO of OORT, to explore the burgeoning field of Decentralized AI (DeAI). They dive deep into why DeAI is essential for building trust, the components of the decentralized AI stack, the role of blockchain, the challenges ahead, and the future trajectory of AI technology.Key Insights:👉The Trust Deficit: Centralized AI models lack transparency, creating a trust issue for users hesitant to share private data.👉Blockchain's Role: Blockchain provides verifiable data/model traceability and enables crypto payments for decentralized contributors.👉Decentralized Stack: DeAI aims to decentralize the entire AI pipeline: data collection, storage, compute (training/fine-tuning), and inference.👉Compute Challenges: While decentralized compute offers cost benefits, reliability remains a major hurdle compared to centralized providers for critical tasks.👉Reinforcement Learning (RL): RL mimics human trial-and-error learning and can optimize reward mechanisms within decentralized AI systems.Chapters:00:00:00 Intro00:00:38 Why is Decentralized AI Important?
