0G

Introduction to 0G

0G (Zero Gravity) is the first decentralized AI operating system that acts as the foundational layer for decentralized AI applications and chains. It efficiently orchestrates utilization of hardware resources such as storage and compute and software assets such as data and models to handle the scale and complexity of AI workloads.

Specifically designed for AI (d)applications and chains, 0G features the fastest, infinitely scalable data availability (DA) layer, the cheapest decentralized storage system, and a novel flexible serving framework for inferences and fine-tuning. Prior to 0G, resource-intensive AI applications would only be feasible "off-chain" due to burdensome on-chain costs, low latency and throughput, and a lack of builder-friendly tooling.

For the first time ever, 0G bridges this cost and efficiency gap between Web2 and Web3, empowering builders to confidently deploy AI applications on-chain with improved performance.

The 0G deAIOS has 4 key components:

• 0G Chain: The fastest, most modular blockchain, making on-chain gaming and AI a reality.
• 0G Storage Network: A decentralized storage network optimized for massive data loads.
• 0G Compute Network: A versatile framework for AI compute, including fast data retrieval, model inference/training, etc.
• 0G DA: An infinitely scalable and programmable data availability layer designed for high-performance chains.

All of these network components utilize carefully designed and innovative sharding mechanisms to achieve infinite horizontal scalability, thereby removing obstacles to the true democratization of AI.
