Lilypad @ Chainlink SmartCon

1. @Lilypad_Tech docs.lilypadnetwork.org Verifiable Trustless Decentralised Compute - The now frontier for web3 (Yes, we can run your AI & ML jobs) Chainlink SmartCon2023

2. ?Hello! Ally Haire Lilypad CEO DeveloperAlly > lilypad run sdxl:v0.9-lilypad1 “Salvadore Dali image of rainbow unicorn” @Lilypad_Tech docs.lilypadnetwork.org

3. ?Verifiable Compute - a core need Computation is one of the core components of the web and of pretty much everything we do in today's connected era -> but is a missing piece of the decentralised story (why? complex, not ready) It's all about doing things with data - moving it, saving it or making it useful. In fact, there's really only 3 main categories: - Networking - Storage & - Compute @Lilypad_Tech docs.lilypadnetwork.org

4. ?Verifiable Compute - the now frontier of web3 Verifiable trustless computation gives -> Internet-scale compute -> mainstream web3 applications leveraging the key properties of blockchains -> new data economies (unlocking and rewarding idle compute) “ Next billion users…! “ But how do I use data? @Lilypad_Tech docs.lilypadnetwork.org

5. ? Lilypad Vision Serious Decentralised Compute with Serious Applications - trustless, internet-scale distributed compute > lilypad run vision

6. ?Vision Develop a trustless, distributed compute network that enables internet-scale data processing, AI, ML and other arbitrary computation from blockchains, while unleashing idle processing power and unlocking a new wave of data economies. @Lilypad_Tech docs.lilypadnetwork.org

7. ? Lilypad offers 1. An independent global marketplace of GPU’s and compute power -> with global coordination for hardware 2. Accessible to everyone on the same terms ie. permissionless, abstraction layer for good UX, call from CLI or Smart Contract (more sdk’s soon) 3. Uses a distributed hardware network with inbuilt cryptographic trust mechanisms -> can be deployed to any EVM-compatible chain -> Off-chain large-scale compute with on-chain guarantees @Lilypad_Tech docs.lilypadnetwork.org

8. ? Why not AWS though? Why we need distributed compute platforms > lilypad run compute

9. ? Lilypad for Decentralised AI Not just a buzz word for web3, but a serious topic for the future of (now mainstream) AI & ML There is both Ethical & Engineering challenges in current AI training & models which distributed networks can help address (& are uniquely situated to do so). Models are closed source, require vast amounts of compute power to train, introduce bias into datasets and are controlled by a few large companies @Lilypad_Tech docs.lilypadnetwork.org

10. ? Lilypad for (real) Open AI AI has immense potential to provide benefit to humanity …provided it’s accessible @Lilypad_Tech docs.lilypadnetwork.org

11. ? Lilypad for Open Innovation “Open-source models are faster, more customizable, more private, and pound-for-pound more capable.”

12. ? GPU Resource Constraints -> DePin solutions Access to GPUs is the key problem for open source AI/ML to be competitive (or even new startups) DePIN can help solve this with an open compute network Leveraging Crytpo dePIN networks, like filecoin, with lilypad coordination helps unlocks this

13. ? Lilypad for Efficiency & Pricing Aligning supply and demand by providing GPUs for AI & ML and new revenue streams to resource / compute providers Oligopolies do not make for efficient use of hardware, nor do they provide good pricing models for users. Lilypad enables coordination layers for matching CPU/GPU with supply (jobs) for a fairer, cheaper marketplace @Lilypad_Tech docs.lilypadnetwork.org

14. ? Lilypad for Distribution “If you look at large cloud providers, their data centers are really in North America and Europe - almost entirely. And we’re leaving behind the rest of the world” - Brooklyn Zelenka [Fission] @Lilypad_Tech docs.lilypadnetwork.org

15. ? Why Decentralised Compute - Recap? Practical Solution Trustless Solutions to Ethical Challenges The GPU shortage (& access to) is ● Decentralised Open Compute ● real! Reduces bias ○ Lilypad makes GPUs ● Speeds Innovation ○ Accessible ○ Increases breadth of solutions ○ Cheaper ○ -> Incentivises community consensus on Available as needed ○ security & ethics. -> Viable for individuals and startups @Lilypad_Tech docs.lilypadnetwork.org

16. ? AI x Blockchain The AI x Blockchain intersect & how it can help > lilypad run AI

17. ? Lilypad for Web3-led AI Solutions - Web3 is incredibly good at unlocking network effects as well as eliminating middle”men” and creating p2p networks. This is what we can bring to both web3 & web2 developers - the power of cheaper, more open, better distributed & more efficient compute power combined with resilient storage, transparency and data ownership (including a community stake in the future of AI) - @Lilypad_Tech docs.lilypadnetwork.org

18. ? Solving AI Problems with Web3 - - Web3 is incredibly good at unlocking network effects. Open Source = Community Ownership = Open verification AND Open AI does a better job of solving real issues Proof of Humanity & Provenance Attribution Models -> eg. Waterlily Using proofs to create collaboration models that still protect data -> data islands - - - - @Lilypad_Tech docs.lilypadnetwork.org

19. ?Waterlily.ai (POC) Waterlily.ai is a generative AI art platform that addresses some key issues around attribution, consent, and revenue for creators in the digital space by compensating original creators of artwork with micropayments whenever a user selects their style to create a new derivative artwork from a prompt. See the code: https://github.com/bacalhau-project/waterlily Full Build Tutorial: https://developerally.com/waterlily-ai

20. ? Lilypad Technicals Built on solidity, leveraging bacalhau & modicum. Off-chain compute with on-chain guarantees > lilypad run technicals

21. ?Technicals - Lalechuza testnet : built on geth, allows arbitrary untrusted nodes to join the network - Lilypad works with “modules” - deterministic compute jobs - Run from CLI or from a Solidity Smart Contract - Uses ERC20 LP token docs.lilypadnetwork.org/research-and-vision/litepaper @Lilypad_Tech docs.lilypadnetwork.org
