DecideAI launches its GPT-2 LLM on Internet Computer

As a researcher with a keen interest in AI and blockchain, I find DecideAI’s latest milestone incredibly intriguing. Having spent years studying the pitfalls of centralized AI development, it’s refreshing to see a startup like DecideAI taking a decisive step towards decentralization. The Internet Computer seems to be the perfect platform for this endeavor, offering a robust ecosystem that eliminates the need for traditional IT infrastructure.


Startup DecideAI, specializing in artificial intelligence, has accomplished a significant achievement by fully integrating their large language model, known as GPT-2, onto the blockchain.

On August 28th, DecideAI unveiled that its GPT-2 Language Learning Model was made accessible on the Internet Computer (ICP), a move which embraces a decentralized method for training, upkeep, and distribution of AI. This decentralized AI system avoids the issues that are common in centralized AI development, as stated by DecideAI in their press release sent to crypto.news.

Why the Internet Computer?

The DFINITY Foundation has introduced the Internet Computer – a versatile platform combining both blockchain technology and web3 capabilities. It allows developers to create and operate decentralized applications solely on the blockchain, thereby eliminating the reliance on centralized IT infrastructure like cloud services provided by big tech companies.

DecideAI uses this decentralized network to make it possible for everyone to participate in the process of training and deploying AI models.

Notable aspects of the Internet Computer involve a virtual machine running on WebAssembly, which facilitates the use of floating-point numbers and deterministic SIMD (Single Instruction Multiple Data) for efficient parallel computation. Furthermore, DecideAI is designed to leverage optimization specifically tailored for the Internet Computer Protocol.

Today, the Internet Computer is uniquely able to host a significant Machine Learning Model (LLM) entirely within its blockchain system. This is because it provides ample memory and processing capabilities to maintain a completely decentralized Artificial Intelligence that operates without any central control.

DecideAI to expand Ethereum and Solana

Significantly, the release of GPT-2 LLM on ICP brings advantages like interoperability, transparency, and blockchain security to AI models. In time, DecideAI plans to utilize Internet Computer’s Chain Fusion technology, enabling protocol-level integration with blockchains such as Ethereum (ETH) and Solana (SOL), to broaden its AI models.

The large language model developed by DecideAI, which runs on the Internet Computer, will utilize the native token of the web3 startup, known as DCD, for its power source.
