OORT launches DataHub for ethical AI development
Artificial intelligence thrives on data, but the difficulties of managing that data — ensuring transparency, security, and cost-efficiency — usually hinder progress.
OORT DataHub, a decentralised platform launched on December 11, aims to address these issues.
The platform uses blockchain technology to create a secure, transparent, and participant-driven data ecosystem, promising lower costs and enhanced data integrity.
The DataHub builds on the company’s earlier Edge Device, offering a blockchain-enabled ecosystem designed to support the next wave of AI solutions.
“Trusted, traceable data is the next bottleneck in AI competition, and OORT DataHub is positioned to solve it,” said Max Li, OORT’s co-founder and CEO. “We’re here to change [the] narrative.”
Decentralised, diverse, and transparent
OORT DataHub invites global participants to build diverse datasets for AI and machine learning models.
Blockchain technology underpins the platform, ensuring data integrity and reducing the danger of manipulation. This protects data integrity, and aligns with a broader industry push for ethical AI practices.
OORT intends to introduce the DataHub Mini App on Telegram to lower barrier to entry. By using Telegram’s expansive user base, OORT aims to make data contribution simpler.
Toward an ethical AI ecosystem
The OORT DataHub’s aims are to alter AI development with a data collection mechanism that the company says are based on fairness, security, and global inclusivity. OORT’s decentralised approach has the potential to address privacy and data manipulation concerns.
As Oortech improves its operations, it is inviting individuals and organisations to engage in this new method of data collection for AI development, laying the groundwork for decentralised, transparent, and ethical AI models.
