Our take

As AI models become more complex, they require substantial computer power. This puts a strain on companies and slows down the adoption of AI technologies, as the infrastructure needed to support these models can be costly and resource-intensive.

Hyperbolic is leveraging blockchain technology to create a decentralized cloud network that aggregates GPU computer power. By pooling resources from various contributors, Hyperbolic aims to make AI computing more efficient and affordable.

Its innovative approach hasn't gone unnoticed, with the company recently securing substantial funding. This will enable Hyperbolic to advance its technology and expand its network, working towards its goal of building an open AI ecosystem where contributors and users can benefit from shared computing resources.
