A new wave of decentralized AI networks is looking to leverage the processing power of everyday phones to decentralize AI computing. This vision sees phones as a potential alternative to centralized computing infrastructure, which can be vulnerable to downtime and cyber attacks. However, skeptics have expressed doubts about the feasibility and scalability of this approach. In 2020, the decentralized AI network, BigEye, was launched, claiming to utilize the processing power of mobile devices to train AI models. Another project, Edge AI, is also exploring the potential of decentralizing AI computing by utilizing edge devices.
