TuringNet Project Updates [08/20–8/31/2018]
Sunny Greetings from the heart of Silicon Valley! Here’s the latest Project Status Report from TuringNet — World’s First Open and Trustable Platform for AI. You can find more details on our hot-off-press news and interesting events for our community members.
Strategic Partnership
During the past week, we have been having intensive and encouraging conversations with a few strategic partners who shares aligned vision with TuringNet, and are determined to bring maximized benefits to the people and society through the use of Artificial Intelligence.
One of our strategic partner is Caruma. Caruma is an artificial intelligence-powered automotive technology company building the next-generation intelligent driver safety assistant. Caruma’s mission is to improve safety for today’s vehicles, while collecting the data need to power tomorrow’s self-driving solutions.
In building deep technical collaborations with Caruma, TuringNet is aiming to bring one of our earliest vision to live — real world mining. Together with Caruma, we will be exploring all the possibilities to allowing our users to mine tokens while driving. As these users produce real value to improve the AI models on TuringNet’s platform, they will also receive TNET tokens in return. Our solution will incentivize Caruma users to contribute their sensor data, driving and traffic behavior data, allowing our AI models to learn better, and ultimately and collectively build an AI solution that’s good enough for the future autonomous driving car industry.
Technical Updates
Preliminary product demo available!
Below is a screenshot of a live running graph for our preliminary product demo. The two lines on the graph represents two nodes on our network performing 10 rounds of AI training iterations at the same time. Ad you can see from the graph, the value of minimized loss decrease after each iteration, and the loss value is minimized towards the completion of the task.
The lines cross with each other throughout the training process, and our platform is designed to reward the node that generates minimized loss value after each iteration, thus making the entire lifecycle of the models evolvement transparent on our chain.
Conference Attendance
TuringNet was invited to attend one of most important industry conference — 2018 Silicon Valley Blockchain Summit. And we had the honor to meet with Mr. Reese Jones, who is the co-founder of Singularity University, to discuss the future of AI and Blockchain applications.
Community Campaigns
We will be launching our weekly Quik Quiz campaign starting next week in our Telegram community group and on Twitter. First 5 community members and followers who provide the correct answer, will receive TNET points for future token rewards! Please stay tuned for more details.
Team Expansion
We’ve been incredibly honored to bring Dr. Song to the team. Dr. Song holds a PhD degree from New York University. He is an expert in the areas of Database Architecture, IoT developing and Cryptography. Dr.Song has a successful track record of bringing big visions from inception to live, and he is also the person who built up factube.com from scratch. With Dr. Song’s join, we are even more confident of expediting our technical roadmap to provide our community members a MVP to experiment in the near term.
We also have Melissa and Jia joining our team to run exciting marketing campaigns and engage our community members. Melissa is a Stanford graduate and has extensive background in Customer Success and Product Marketing. She is also a blockchain enthusiast with deep knowledge and experience promoting blockchain projects in a decentralized manner. Jia will be joining TuringNet to continue grow our community and convey our true value and long term commitment to our community members.
