Key Features of Proof of Aggregated Compute

This layer is designed to validate the computational work performed by the nodes without requiring trust between parties. It ensures that the computational output provided by a node matches what was agreed upon, thereby preventing fraudulent activities and ensuring integrity.

The network implements mechanisms for verifying and displaying the specific attributes of each compute node, including the type of GPUs/TPUs, the infrastructure technology used, geographical location, throughput, uptime, and other relevant parameters. This transparency allows users to make informed decisions when selecting compute nodes for their AI tasks. More on this is discussed here.

Smart contracts are employed to automate the process of assigning computation tasks to nodes and distributing rewards based on the verified completion of tasks. These contracts can encode terms related to the required computational resources, expected output, deadlines, and compensation, ensuring fairness and efficiency.

Proof of Compute (PoC) architecture is designed keeping in mind that AI applications that require extensive computational resources and metrics like "location," "throughput," and "uptime" have specific significances.
