9. GENERATIVE AI and WEB3
Models such as ChatGPT or GPT-4 are known
as foundation models which represents the
dominant paradigm in generative AI
10. GENERATIVE AI and WEB3
A foundation model is a
large artificialintelligence model
trained on a vast quantity of
unlabeled data at scale resultingin
a model that can be adapted to a
wide range of downstream tasks.

36. GENERATIVE AI and WEB3
Generative AI can create an unbridgeable
technological gap between Web2 and Web3
37. GENERATIVE AI and WEB3
Lack of
ML Foundation
Web3 platforms
havenât built a robust
machine learning
foundation in the last
decade.
As a result, generative
AI models mostly rely on
Web2 cloud
infrastructures.
Generative AI can create an unbridgeable
technological gap between Web2 and Web3
Cost and
Scale
Web3 platforms still
donât scale to the levels
required by large
foundation models.
VC Investment and
Talent
VC funding and
engineering talent is
moving from Web3 to
the generative AI
space.

40. GENERATIVE AI and WEB3
Some Areas in Which Web3 can Contribute to
Generative AI
Decentralized Generative AI
Provide the infrastructure to
run open source models like
Bloom, Alpaca, Dolly in
blockchain runtimes.
Proof of Knowledge
Use blockchains as a core layer to
enforce accountability, fairness
and transparency of the lifecycle of
foundation models.

42. GENERATIVE AI and WEB3
In an initial phase, Web3 applications can use
foundation models but there will be a new generation
of core components of Web3 architectures that can
be reimagined with generative AIâŠ
43. GENERATIVE AI and WEB3
