Lilypad Network: Decentralizing Compute Power in the AI Era
Lilypad is revolutionizing AI and ML by decentralizing compute power using blockchain technology. Amid GPU shortages and high demand for computational resources, their platform taps into idle computing resources globally. By leveraging Ethereum on the Arbitrum network, Lilypad uses smart contracts for secure, transparent transactions between resource providers and consumers. Tasks are packaged in Docker containers and distributed across a peer-to-peer network via WebRTC. This approach democratizes access to high-performance computing, lowers costs, and accelerates innovation, making AI and ML technologies more accessible and efficient.
