Introduction to Ritual

What is Ritual?

Introducing Decentralized AI

Ritual introduces decentralized AI by building a network for open AI infrastructure. Its novel architecture is built on a crowdsourced governance layer aimed to handle safety, funding, alignment, and model evolution.

  • Ritual Superchain

    A suite of sovereign modular execution layers, mostly revolving around AI models

  • Infernet

    The first production implementation of Ritual's protocol

  • Infernet Node

    Classes of nodes, each containing different functionality and resource requirements

The Flawed Infrastructure of AI

The state of AI is flawed.

Artificial Intelligence has the potential to positively contribute to society but the infrastructure in which it is being built is deeply flawed.

Permissioned & centralized APIs

A small number of mega corporations are controlling access to AI technology

Ritual provides decentralized access to AI

lack of privacy & compute integrity

User data is processed and sold for economic gain

For Ritual, privacy comes first

lack of censorship resistance

Centralized structures allow censorship and limiting access to AI

Ritual is censorship resistant

Decentralizing AI

Ritual is the solution.

Ritual is the network for open AI infrastructure. With its crowdsourced governance layer, Ritual is able to provide safety, funding, alignment, and model evolution

Censorship Resistance
Privacy
Verifiable

Censorship Resistant

  • Open access of AI models
  • Transcend closed ecosystems

Privacy First

  • Lightweight cryptographic schemes

  • Without performance degradation of users

Fully Verifiable

  • Guaranteed results from real models

  • Proofs for unbounded model sizes
What is Ritual?

Ritual brings AI on-chain. In doing so, Ritual is building a way for protocols, dApps, or smart contract to integrate AI models with only a few lines of code.
