Research Overview

Author: Don Tapscott, Anjan Vinod
Release Date: March 22, 2019

Abstract:

The use of artificial intelligence is diffusing, making it one of the broadest technological revolutions ever. Blockchain technology has the unique ability to improve the reliability of AI training data and secure AI implementations through smart contracts and on-chain governance. This project examines AI, the differences among centralized, decentralized, and distributed AI, the utility of autonomous agents, and current scalability and governance challenges.

Filecoin and the Future of Decentralized Cloud Storage

Filecoin is a decentralized protocol that anyone can download to rent out spare storage space on their computer. An alternative to traditional cloud storage, the Filecoin blockchain-based storage solution leverages a peer-to-peer architecture, creating massively scalable storage capacity without building massive new infrastructure. Instead of entrusting one company to store and protect valuable digital assets and documents in a single jurisdiction, customers can split up and store their assets on different computers around the world. The low barriers to entry and the economic rewards for miners make for ample supply of storage, keeping fees quite attractive; and the dispersion of files makes them difficult to hack, seize, or take down. This research walks executives through enterprise use cases and the benefits of participating in decentralized storage networks.
