Ocean Protocol: A Decentralized Substrate for AI Data & Services Technical Whitepaper

February 19, 2019

Modern society runs on data [Economist2017]. Modern artificial intelligence (AI) extracts value from data. More data means more accurate AI models [Banko2001] [Halevy2009], which in turn means more benefits to society and business. The greatest beneficiaries are companies that have both vast data and internal AI expertise, like Google and Facebook. In contrast, AI startups have amazing algorithms but are starving for data; and typical enterprises are drowning in data but have less AI expertise. The power of both data and AI—and therefore society—is in the hands of few.

Mobile network operators (MNOs) are now considering ways to take advantage of the benefits that Virtualized RAN (vRAN) can deliver. vRAN gives MNOs greater network availability and better deployment flexibility using pooled, centralized resources that are operating on standardized commercially available hardware.
