Building the Future of AI on 0G
With some of the most innovative AI projects in web3, we are pleased to introduce the second in batches of their AI Accelerator.
By integrating these top-tier projects into the 0G decentralized AI OS, the accelerator hopes to increase 0G’s technical prowess and draw more creatives to its ecosystem. With the goal of creating a genuinely decentralized AI infrastructure that is scalable, effective, and accessible to everyone, 0G is quickly becoming the Layer 1 that enables AI. And we’re eager to see how far these 0G x OnePiece Labs AI Accelerator projects will go given OnePiece’s demonstrated success in AI and web3 acceleration!
0G has obtained substantial funds to assist this aim, and has just closed a large investment round to support its expansion. The 0G ecosystem is poised for exponential growth with its TGE imminent. It provides an unmatched platform for AI researchers, developers, and businesses to create and implement robust, decentralized, and open AI solutions.
The projects that make up cohort 2 will get investor exposure, technical assistance, and mentoring over the course of the next weeks. This will culminate in their attendance at Token2049 Dubai’s on-site Demo Day, where they will present their advancements to the international web3 and AI community.
As these initiatives realize their AI-powered ambitions, stay tuned for updates!
