It is estimated that the market size of artificial intelligence is expected to reach 270 billion usd this year.

The artificial intelligence technology has grown exponentially in the last decade.
The growth stems from the increased interest for ease of doing businesses world over...which make industries, businesses, financial sectors, shipping sectors, automobile sectors all scampering for a "feel" of artificial intelligence technology.

The technology can be deployed in carrying out
Cyber security,trading,marketing,Health functions.

Self driving cars.

Improving on the manufacturing processes for industries.

Industries would be able to design products to consumers specifications.

The potential of this sector might seem endless, however, there are factors limiting it from being widely adopted and continually growing.

Factors such as :

Maintenance.
Data Privacy.
Centralization.

Maintenance .....it is very cost -intensive to maintain a computing data centre.

Data Privacy: data is not 100% securely stored.

Centralized structure : with this privacy protection is not guaranteed as its vulnerable to attack and third party interference.

There is need for a platform that can proffer lasting solutions to these challenges with a view to pushing for the wide spread adoption of blockchain.

Introducing Nebula AI, a decentralized blockchain, integrated with artificial intelligence computing services. It can significantly reduce the traditional electricity usage on mining, by converting GPU mining machines into AI computing units. It allows anyone access AI computing resources from anywhere to anyplace in the world.

WHY NEBULA AI?

Nebula AI would leverage off the blockchain technology to create a platform where computing power of AI can be rented and distributed across the world over....this will ensure that artificial intelligence services is provided at an affordable cost.

Because the blockchain is decentralized, data can is guaranteed to be 100% securely stored and protected against hackers and third party interference.

Nebula AI would enable developers to design their own artificial intelligence .

Nebula AI would bring suppliers and consumers of computing powers under one roof ( the Nebula platform.)
This way, cost of computing power is reduced as the chain of middlemen are eliminated.

Nebula would reduce energy consumption during mining, this will be achieved by means of the transition of graphics processors to computing .

Nebula AI would provide an Articficial Intelligence training center....which will go a long way in passing knowledge to interested people , which will increase user participation and increased blockchain adoption.

Nebula AI Token and Usecase

The nebula token would serve as the medium of exchange on the NEBULA platform.

The token would be used to incentivize developers for publishing their Apps .

The Nebula token is designed to be available for retraining models, to use DAI applications and developers test At the initial phase nebula plans to create over 6.71 billion tokens, after which it will maintain a constant – decreasing production quantity with the quantity reducing from 2% to 0.2% within the space of 6 years.

REWARDS

Nebula would incentivize miners on its ecosystem through Rewards from the ledger, AI calculation, and IPFS.

TEAM

The CEO and co-Founder, Charles Cao, graduated from Fudan University, one of the most prestigious universities in China, with a Bachelor’s Degree in Electronic Engineering. He previously worked at IBM, SAP, Autodesk and Expedia before founded Nebula AI. He is also the founder of Montreal IT Association with more than 700 members.

Dr. Xiong Tengke, the AI Architect, has a Ph.D in Computer Science. He has more than 10 years of experiencesin AI and has published many articles regarding data mining and machine learning.

The team is also backed by some reputable advisors. One of them is Yu Guan, who was Microsoft Most Valuable Professional and is currently the CTO of Domum Link, an online residential property management platform.

Partners

Nebula AI has partnered with McGill University and Concordia University. McGill University School of Medicine and Nebula AI is working together to study the use of AI in surgery, while Concordia University’s professor, Yan Liu, who is also one of their advisors, is helping Nebula AI with the encryption. One of their partners is WeHash, a mining farm where Nebula AI can use the computational power to test their products. They also have secured some partners in China, like Beepay and Detrust.
