An Overview of the W3AI Computing Workflow

AI computing tasks such as AI Model Training and AI Inference have been scrutinized over the years for violating the privacy of users' data utilized during the execution of these tasks.

These privacy concerns inspired us to build AIOZ W3AI with users' privacy in mind, enabling its stakeholders to easily comply with the data privacy laws operational in many jurisdictions globally.

In this article, we explore the design philosophy of the W3AI computing workflow and analyze its various stages to show how data privacy will be preserved on the W3AI platform.

INTRODUCTION

AIOZ Web3 AI (W3AI) is a decentralized AI-as-a-service solution that will be powered by the combined hardware resources of 200,000+ AIOZ DePIN devices for the execution of AI computing tasks in a privacy-preserving manner.

The W3AI computing workflow represents an intricately crafted system created with precision to address the long-standing concerns of maintaining data privacy in AI computations.

This AI computing workflow is grounded in a strong design philosophy that incorporates state-of-the-art technologies to provide a secure, effective, and collaborative setting for AI developers & businesses.

OUR DESIGN PHILOSOPHY: BALANCING SECURITY AND PERFORMANCE

The core design philosophy of the W3AI computing workflow revolves around the harmonious integration of two key technologies:

▪️Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE): This innovative technology enables the execution of AI computations directly on encrypted users' data, eliminating the need to expose sensitive raw information to third parties.

▪️Decentralized Federated Learning (DFL): DFL optimizes and secures the transmission of AI models during the training process—which takes place across multiple edge devices—further enhancing data privacy and security.

This combined approach safeguards user data and model privacy while simultaneously optimizing processing speed and performance of computing tasks throughout the entire model training process.

VARIOUS STAGES IN THE W3AI COMPUTING WORKFLOW

The AIOZ W3AI computing workflow ensures a smooth and privacy-centric experience for users and developers involved in AI computing tasks on the W3AI platform.

Here's a breakdown of its key stages:

1.) Task Initialization:

i.) Users submit their AI computing tasks and deposit a fee to compensate owners of AIOZ DePIN devices who are contributing their hardware resources.

ii.) Using built-in homomorphic encryption capabilities, data and model containers are securely encrypted locally on the user's AIOZ DePIN app.

iii.) A local switching key is created for decryption purposes.

2.) Data and Container Distribution:

i.) The W3AI task manager leverages network topology to assign encrypted data and containers to suitable storage and computing AIOZ DePIN devices.

ii.) During AI model training, storage AIOZ DePIN devices provide data to computing AIOZ DePIN devices for task execution.

iii.) The W3AI task manager monitors the performance of the selected AIOZ DePIN devices and distributes rewards based on their contribution in each communication round.

3.) Computation Phase:

i.) A computing task would either involve model training (improving a model's capabilities) or model inference (generating predictions based on trained models).

ii.) Task outputs can either be encrypted results or encrypted models, depending on the task.

iii.) A computation process would stop once the task is completed or when the reward allocated for the task is exhausted.

4.) Result Delivery and Decryption:

i.) The encrypted results or models are securely delivered back to the user.

ii.) The local switching key is used to decrypt the results or models using the decryption and authorization functionalities of the AIOZ DePIN app.

iii.) Unused rewards are returned to their respective owners by the W3AI task manager.

This meticulous workflow ensures comprehensive data privacy and security for all users of the AIOZ W3AI platform.

CONCLUSION

Growing concerns around the data privacy of users—especially in traditional AI computations—have increased the demand for an AI computing infrastructure that can address these concerns and still handle AI computing tasks optimally.

At AIOZ Network, we have created a decentralized AI computing ecosystem that ticks both boxes in the form of AIOZ W3AI, providing a robust alternative to traditional AI infrastructure for AI developers, businesses, and end users.

By combining cutting-edge technologies with a well-designed AI computing workflow, AIOZ W3AI will empower its users to participate in collaborative AI development while safeguarding their sensitive information!
