AI Agent
Software that uses artificial intelligence to perceive information, make decisions, and perform actions toward defined objectives.
Blockchain
A blockchain is a distributed, immutable ledger technology that records transactions across a network of computers. Data is stored in 'blocks' that are linked chronologically using cryptographic hashes. Once data is verified and written, it is computationally impractical to alter or delete, ensuring a single, verifiable version of the truth without a central intermediary. This architecture provides transparency, security, and trust by requiring consensus among network participants rather than relying on a central authority.
Blockchain
A distributed, decentralized digital ledger that records transactions across many computers in such a way that the records cannot be altered retroactively without the consensus of the network. Each block contains a cryptographic hash of the previous block, creating an immutable chain.
Decentralized Compute
Computing capacity supplied and coordinated across independent providers, often using blockchain settlement or incentives.
Verifiable AI
AI systems whose model identity, inputs, outputs, or computations can be independently checked using cryptographic or auditable mechanisms.
