Bittensor is a new way to build AI, where many computers work as one:

Bittensor links computers across the globe to form a decentralized network. This network allows distributed computing power to develop and improve AI. Instead of one company being in charge, all participants work together to run the network.

There are two main roles in the network: miners and validators. Miners create AI models or share computing power, while validators check the quality of the miners' work. Both roles earn rewards for their contributions.

TAO is the network's native cryptocurrency. People earn TAO by mining, validating, or staking (helping secure the network). This reward system encourages participation and improvement.

One of the main goals of Bittensor is to let more people participate in AI development. Instead of only big tech companies creating AI, Bittensor allows anyone with a computer to contribute. This could lead to more diverse and innovative AI solutions.

Bittensor aims to make AI accessible beyond big tech companies. By allowing broader participation, the network brings in new ideas to AI development. This open model supports innovation through collective contribution.
