Question 1

What is DGrid AI (DGAI) used for?

Accepted Answer

DGAI is used within the DGrid AI ecosystem for payments, node incentives and staking, while also forming the basis of the network's governance framework.

Users can use DGAI to pay for AI inference requests processed by network nodes. The cost of a request can vary according to the amount of computation required, including factors such as model size, input size, execution time and latency. Payments are handled through smart contracts and distributed to participating node operators.

Node operators can receive DGAI for processing inference requests and providing computing resources to the network. Participation as a node requires DGAI to be staked as collateral. Nodes that fail to meet defined network requirements or submit invalid results can have part of their stake deducted.

DGAI is also intended to support the network's governance framework through token staking. The governance model is designed to allow staked DGAI holders to participate in decisions covering areas such as inference pricing, supported AI models, protocol upgrades, blockchain integrations and treasury allocations as the governance system is progressively introduced.

Question 2

Who created DGrid AI (DGAI)?

Accepted Answer

DGrid AI was co-founded by Alex Ding, who serves as the project's CEO. He is involved in the development of DGrid AI and its infrastructure for distributed AI inference.
