Demand for GPU compute continues to rise, making it much more expensive to access GPUs. This is because GPUs are used to power the compute capabilities of AI and ML, and as AI continues to innovate, GPUs become increasingly unavailable and hence more expensive. @ionet_official Cloud is addressing this growing concern by aggregating GPUs that are geographically distributed across multiple locations into a DePIN. This allows @ionet_official to offer low-latency compute capacity at the scale required by AI and ML companies while staying cost-efficient.


Building the world's largest AI compute DePIN means io.net has tens of thousands of independent node operators around the world. Providing alternatives to centralized cloud providers is more than bringing transactions for compute on-chain, it is tapping into the distributed compute that already exists in the world and making it available to innovators and builders advancing AI and ML. video from our community member @leeland_sol


io.net harnesses the power of hundreds of millions of consumer Apple Silicon chips to power AI/ML workloads. Engineers can cluster Apple M1/M2/M3 chips for ML and AI compute from anywhere around the world on io.net, and users with Apple hardware can earn by contributing spare computing resources for AI and ML use cases. Consumer Apple chips are also eligible to receive boosted rewards in the io.net Ignition Program.

BREAKING: io.net has raised $30M to build the largest decentralized GPU network in the world and solve the AI compute shortage. The Series A round was led by Hack VC with participation from Multicoin Capital, 6th Man Ventures, M13, Delphi Digital, Solana Labs, Aptos Labs, Foresight, Amber, Longhash, SevenX, ArkStream, Animoca Brands, Continue Capital, MH Ventures, Sandbox Games. Prominent industry leaders also joined the funding round, including Solana founder Anatoly Yakovenk, Aptos founders Mo Shaikh and Avery Ching, Yat Siu of Animoca Brands, Sebastien Borget of The Sandbox, and Jin Kang of Perlone Capital. reuters.com/technology/ai-…
