About Arbius
Arbius is a decentralized machine learning network creating a “DeFi-for-AI” peer-to-peer ecosystem. It allows AI models to be hosted, run, and monetized without central control, using a Proof of Useful Work (PoUW) mechanism to reward valuable AI computation. This fosters a shared, uncensored, and permissionless AI economy, enabling users and AI agents to access and procure compute resources globally.
Key Pillars:
- Decentralized Compute & Model Hosting: A distributed network for running AI models, allowing creators to earn revenue and users to access diverse AI.
- AIUS Token & veAIUS Staking: The AIUS token facilitates inference payments, governance, and rewards. Locking AIUS for veAIUS grants governance power over model incentivization and a share in network fees.
- Gobius Mining Software: Enables GPU owners to contribute compute power, run AI models, and earn AIUS, with honesty ensured via on-chain validation.
- Arbius Playground & Amica: The Playground allows direct interaction with network AI models. Amica, an open-source AI chatbot, showcases natural human-AI interaction and can use Arbius for backend processing.
- Effective Acceleration Marketplace (EACC): A marketplace for AI agents and humans to post and complete tasks, allowing agents to autonomously purchase compute.
- Open and Censorship-Resistant: Designed for free global interaction with AI models, promoting open-source AI and community development.
