Ocean Protocol Launches VS Code Extension for Decentralized AI Development
🔌 Decentralized compute meets...
Ocean Protocol has officially released its VS Code Extension on the Visual Studio Code marketplace, making decentralized compute accessible directly from developers' coding environment.
Key features include:
- Run compute jobs and train AI models without leaving your IDE
- Direct access to Ocean Nodes for decentralized computing
- Built-in real-time monitoring for distributed AI workflows
- Privacy-preserving Compute-to-Data job deployment
The extension eliminates the need for separate dashboards, integrating compute and data access directly into developers' workflows. This streamlines the process of building federated learning systems and distributed AI applications.
Developers can now tap into Ocean's decentralized infrastructure without switching between multiple tools or interfaces. The extension supports safe deployment of privacy-preserving AI models while maintaining the familiar VS Code development experience.
Ocean Protocol's Compute-to-Data Creates Blueprint for Compliant AI Economy
**Compute-to-Data technology** is emerging as a key infrastructure for the AI economy, offering a solution that balances multiple stakeholder needs. **Key benefits include:** - Data owners maintain full control over their assets - AI builders can access and utilize data for results - Compliance teams get transparent audit trails This approach addresses a critical gap in today's AI landscape, where data often operates in **opaque, black-box systems** that don't benefit original data creators. **The technology enables:** - AI training on private data without exposure - GDPR and regulatory compliance - On-chain royalties for data contributors - Full traceability of data usage The system integrates across blockchains, cloud platforms, and edge devices, creating an **interoperable foundation** for a Web3 AI economy that's regenerative, accountable, and designed to share value among participants. This represents a shift toward **decentralized AI infrastructure** where privacy, ownership, and monetization can coexist.
🕐 Final Hours: CivicLens Challenge
The **CivicLens challenge** ends today at 16:00 UTC with a **$10,000 prize pool** still up for grabs. Participants help build datasets for AI model training that enables compliance teams to: - Detect checkable statements faster - Identify market-moving information more accurately This data annotation challenge focuses on improving AI systems used in financial compliance and regulatory oversight.
