Gonka

Gonka is a decentralized AI infrastructure designed to optimize computational power specifically for AI model training and inference, offering a competitive alternative to traditional centralized cloud providers. Centralized systems are often expensive, monopolistic, and carry risks of censorship, whereas existing decentralized networks frequently waste resources on non-productive tasks, such as network security.

We introduce an innovative consensus mechanism that ensures nearly 100% of computational resources are used for meaningful AI tasks, maximizing efficiency and minimizing operational costs.

The system features key roles:

• Developers build and deploy AI applications using the network’s distributed power. Getting started, visit the Developer Quickstart Guide.
• Participants (hardware providers or nodes) contribute computational resources to the network and are rewarded based on the amount and quality of resources they provide. To begin contributing, visit the Participant Quickstart Guide.

This collaboration allows the platform to offer AI services at significantly lower prices, making advanced AI technology more accessible to a broader audience.
