ORA and 0G are partnering together to enable AI on blockchains.

ORA, Ethereum’s Trustless AI, brings verifiable, decentralized AI inference on blockchains with Onchain AI Oracle (OAO), based on the groundbreaking on-chain AI approach of opML (Optimistic Machine Learning).

Meanwhile, 0G, the first modular AI chain, brings AI to Web3 with the first programmable data availability (DA) solution optimized for on-chain AI.

Together, ORA and 0G are pioneering the new era of AI DApps by offering decentralized on-chain AI with verifiable inference and data availability.

Data Availability means that data is publicly accessible for anyone to verify, and it can also be thought of as “data publication”.

For example, Layer 2 blockchains handle transactions off-chain and this data is kept available so that anyone can verify that computations were done correctly.

Entering into the era of AI that includes the on-chain AI approaches of zkML and opML, data availability is also required for storing data such as AI inference input and output data, AI inference traces, or an AI model itself.

Specifically, the availability of both AI model data and AI inference data is crucial for opML, similar to all optimistic-based systems, because all parties need these data to be accessible to re-execute computations and launch a dispute if necessary.

To enable DA optimized for AI, 0G’s Data Availability Layer offers an infinitely scalable solution, seamlessly integrating with their general-purpose data storage system of 0G Storage.

The architecture of 0G ensures data availability by erasure-coding data, fragmenting it across multiple storage nodes, and leveraging a consensus network for quick verification.

By utilizing a verifiable random function (VRF) to select storage nodes, 0G minimizes any risk of collusion and significantly enhances data retrieval speeds.

0G’s scalability is particularly crucial for advanced AI models and high-performance decentralized applications, making it finally possible to run AI on-chain.

ORA’s Onchain AI Oracle (OAO), ORA's verifiable and decentralized AI oracle, currently enables AI inference of various AI models: Llama 3 (by Meta), Stable Diffusion (text-to-image), and OpenLM on various blockchains including Ethereum, Optimism, Arbitrum, and Manta.

0G’s programmable DA layer can enable optimized, efficient, and programmable data availability and storage for on-chain AI like ORA’s OAO, while upholding OAO’s end-to-end verifiability and decentralization.

This works by having 0G’s storage solution “0G Storage” store any relevant Web2 or Web3 data, with programmability over decisions such as the amount of data replicability. 0G can then query this data to prove data availability, which is particularly beneficial for the operation of Ora’s opML as it ensures public data verification.

Furthermore, the entire pipeline of model data, input data, and output data can be stored in a decentralized manner. This decentralized storage not only enhances security but also fosters a more streamlined and efficient data flow, as it allows for quick access and retrieval of on-chain AI.

The result is that this collaboration will enhance the security and efficiency of data management while bringing Ora one step closer to achieving our goal of enabling AI on blockchains. We are excited to see what the future holds and we are confident that our joint efforts will significantly contribute to the growth and advancement of the AI and blockchain industry.

0G is an infinitely scalable data availability (DA) layer and modular A.I. blockchain. 0G is highly programmable and interoperable, capable of supporting a wide variety of industry needs. Its data availability solution is built on top of a general storage system capable of storing vast sums of both structured and unstructured data, enabling the future data needs of Web3.

The team includes 10+ PhD recipients and one of the world’s top cryptographers, while the business team has extensive fundraising and growth success, winning numerous awards such as the top YCombinator project and the top entrepreneur award.
