Discover DSperse, the innovative solution revolutionizing Zero-Knowledge Machine Learning (zkML) proofs through advanced model slicing.

Zero-knowledge (ZK) and artificial intelligence (AI) have increasingly complemented each other to meet growing demands for privacy, transparency, and trust in digital systems.

Inference Labs is excited to announce the public release of JSTprove, our framework for Zero-Knowledge Machine Learning (zkML).

What if every AI model could prove its own output? Meet DSperse, a new open-source toolkit from Inference Labs.

Join us for an in-depth conversation with Ron, Co-Founder of Inference Labs, at Token 2049.

AI content watermarks intended to authenticate AI-generated text, images, video, and more, can be easily removed or forged by tools and adversarial attacks, undermining their reliability.

On Bittensor, some validators copy weights (miner scores) from others instead of performing real validation. This undermines the network’s fairness, reduces accountability, and rewards dishonest behavior.

While large language models (LLMs) generating false AI model outputs (i.e., hallucinations) are a known problem in AI systems, the deeper and more serious challenge is the systemic lack of verifiability.

Meet DSperse, a modular framework that addresses this by targeted verification: rather than circuitizing an entire model, DSperse lets you circuitize and prove high-value subcomputations.

No matter how cutting-edge your AI, without provable, cryptographic trust, growth stalls dramatically and opportunities vanish.

Colin Gagich shared his founder journey — from hitchBOT to building verifiable AI at Inference Labs. The energy in the room was amazing, and the support from Toronto’s tech community was truly inspiring.

AI benchmark leaderboards are cluttered with cherry-picked and sometimes fabricated results, eroding trust in reported performance. Understanding why this matters reveals how distorted metrics can be misleading.

A few weeks ago, our co-founder Colin spoke at Google’s ZK & AI Summit.He shared why full-model zkML is hitting practical limits — and how we’re working on faster, lighter ways to solve this issue. Here’s a clip from his talk — with a glimpse of what’s coming next.

AI faces a growing credibility crisis — silent model swaps and opaque management are eroding trust when it matters most. Subnet 2 introduces real-time cryptographic verification, setting a new benchmark for dependable, accountable open-source AI.

Verifiable inference using ZKPs enables trustless, private AI across industries like finance, telecom, and robotics. With a projected $10–15B market by 2025, Inference Labs’ Subnet 2 and Sertn are pioneering cost-effective decentralized AI for enterprises, developers, and governments.
