Should AI belong to enterprises or to everyone? Psyche teams up with Solana to kick off a decentralization AI training revolution.

Decentralization technology leads the new wave of AI democratization. The brand new AI training network "Psyche" launched by Nous Research officially went live on the Testnet yesterday, choosing the Solana network as the technical foundation to initiate a global decentralized language model (LM) training action. This is not only a technological breakthrough but could also rewrite the landscape of the AI industry, creating an intelligent era where everyone can participate.

What is Psyche? The three core technologies reshape AI training logic.

Psyche, as a groundbreaking decentralized AI training network developed by Nous Research, aims to allow global users, whether individuals or small communities, to contribute their GPUs to collaboratively train large AI models. This breaks the past monopoly phenomenon where AI training resources were concentrated in the hands of a few tech giants, opening up a true era of technological sharing and democratization.

The official blog points out that Psyche is equipped with the following key technologies:

DisTrO Optimizer: Reduces cross-node data transfer volume by tens of thousands of times, enabling home GPUs like NVIDIA 3090 to achieve decentralized training.

Blockchain Coordination Mechanism: The core training status and node tasks are managed by the "Coordinator" smart contract deployed on Solana, ensuring that the training process is transparent, fair, and decentralized.

Node certification and rewards: Node contribution records are stored on Solana, and tokens are distributed based on performance to incentivize participation in computational resources.

How does Psyche achieve true decentralization?

The overall structure of Psyche is divided into three main roles to ensure efficient, stable, and continuous network training:

Coordinator (: Synchronize tasks and status on Solana.

Client ): Globally distributed GPU nodes responsible for model training and validation.

Data Provider (: Upload data for training use.

The language model "Consilience" is officially in training.

Currently, the Psyche Testnet is pre-training a language model "Consilience" with 4 billion parameters, using up to 20 trillion types of text data, employing a multi-head latent attention MLA architecture. Even though the model is not large, it possesses amazing computational and creative potential.

Consilience training status Psyche practice AI democratization: empowering academic, educational, and medical applications

The launch of Psyche symbolizes a key milestone in the democratization of AI, reducing technological monopolies and achieving fair innovation:

Lowering the technical barrier: Developers, educational institutions, academic research, and medical teams will no longer be restricted by expensive hardware or equipment resources, and will be able to participate in advanced AI research.

Improve resource efficiency: Transform idle GPUs around the world into training engines, saving energy and reducing dependence on data centers.

Ensure fairness and diversity: Decentralization architecture can prevent human manipulation and ensure that technology serves all of humanity.

Technology should not be exclusive to a few, but should benefit all of humanity.

Nous finally stated: "Psyche Testnet is just the beginning."

We anticipate that in the future, we will allow more permissionless nodes to join, more model architectures and training methods ) such as reinforcement learning and fine-tuning (, to establish a global collaborative AI development platform, and continuously promote trustless incentives and complete record mechanisms through Solana.

Psyche is not only a technological revolution, but also a revolution in the concept of AI development, symbolizing a new value: "Open the power of AI tools to everyone involved around the world and build a fairer and more innovative future together."

As this project gradually matures, we may be witnessing the birth of an era where artificial intelligence truly belongs to everyone.
