FLock.io, a platform driven by the community, has joined forces with io.net to offer decentralized computing services to FLock. The collaboration aims to address the challenges of centralized data storage and pave the way for a future where AI can enhance human productivity. Working together, FLock and io.net are committed to decentralizing AI at all levels of the technology stack.

Jiahao Sun, founder and CEO of FLock.io, expressed his vision for a future where AI is community-governed through decentralized training models. The partnership with io.net will decentralize the GPUs powering the platform, aligning with FLock's mission.

Ahmad Shadid, CEO of io.net, highlighted the potential of combining io.net's decentralized compute resources with FLock's platform to set a new standard for privacy and efficiency in AI development. The collaboration illustrates their shared goal of democratizing powerful computing for the AI industry.

Using federated learning, FLock trains AI models across its network without the need to centralize data. This approach allows for collaborative learning while avoiding data gathering concerns. By leveraging io.net's idle processing capacity, decentralized hosting offers affordable computation that is 90% less expensive than traditional cloud services.
