The ‘eBay’ of AI Training Data (And Why the World Needs It)

TL;DR

Full Story

Your mother was proper: there is such a factor as an excessive amount of web.

(And every particular person’s tolerance is completely different).

Some people can spend most of their waking hours on-line, and at worst, their style in memes will turn into weirdly area of interest…whereas others dissolve virtually immediately when going through the web’s steady ‘fireplace hose’ of knowledge.

Like Chevy’s eighth grade science instructor who turned satisfied England wasn’t an actual place, however really a set on a Hollywood sound stage.

(True story. Shout out to Mr. Kertser).

Seems ‘placing the appropriate stability of web,’ isn’t only a human drawback.

ChatGPT has been skilled on just about the entire web’s scrape-able data, and has gone a bit crazy consequently.

Positive, it will get a whole lot of issues proper…however it might probably additionally turn into somewhat ‘Kertser-esque,’ and provides very fallacious solutions, with unwavering confidence.

The answer:

Create purpose-built AI chat bots off the again of smaller, cleaner, and extra focused information units.

…solely drawback is – there isn’t precisely an ‘eBay for AI coaching information.’

(A minimum of, that’s what we thought).

Seems the group behind the Bagel Network has simply locked in $3.1M of pre-seed funding to develop their ‘decentralized blockchain-powered market, for machine studying datasets,’ (aka: ‘the eBay of AI coaching information’).

What’s actually necessary right here is that it’s decentralized.

As a result of ‘entry to intelligence’ is a vector of management.

We’ve seen people/firms/nations amass loopy wealth and energy by organizing a bunch of sensible individuals, and leveraging their data.

And AI doesn’t simply permit ‘entry to intelligence,’ however ‘entry to tremendous intelligence.’

(One thing that might create large disparity, when left solely within the arms of some).

And whereas a decentralized community of unpolluted n’ polished information doesn’t resolve the difficulty outright, it does assist to stage the taking part in area:

• The extra individuals have entry to various coaching information →

• The extra individuals can compete within the AI/machine studying area →

• The much less management is presented to tech giants and nation states by default…

Good!
