I've been mulling over something lately.
Using AI to tweak articles, and my friends think I wrote them myself—no biggie. But have you thought about this—lawyers using AI to review contracts, doctors using AI to analyze scans, fund managers using AI to calculate risks; the concern of 'the recipient not knowing how much AI was involved' is no joke.
What OpenGradient is doing is, to put it simply, issuing a "receipt" for every AI inference—detailing which model, what inputs, what processes; everything is on-chain and can be checked at any time. As of June this year, this network has processed over 2 million verifiable AI inferences, generating more than 500,000 proofs. Technically, it’s feasible.
But I keep thinking about a more twisted question: who really cares about this right now?
Most people using AI for content assistance—the recipients don’t know, don’t care, and can’t verify. You can claim your AI inferences are trustworthy, but the other party won’t even think to ask.
This status quo needs to change, and it can’t just be achieved by piling on technology. There needs to be something—something that makes everyone start asking 'where did this result come from?'
What is that something? To be honest, I haven't figured it out yet.
But I do know that when that something happens, @OpenGradient will be right there waiting for it.
