Verifying Digital Media Origins with C2PA Standard

A third-place hackathon winner developed a **unified data pipeline** that gives every Livepeer orchestrator access to the same real-time performance metrics. Currently, builders face **fragmented data** across different orchestrators, explorers, and dashboards. The new solution creates a single pipeline connecting every node, job, and AI inference event. **Key benefits:** - Smarter job routing and orchestrator discovery - Real-time AI model usage insights - Standardized, developer-friendly data access The pipeline surfaces metrics like: - Job volume and GPU types - Model usage patterns - Pricing data **Impact for stakeholders:** - Developers get a data playground to build ecosystem tools - Node operators gain visibility and participation metrics - The network evolves with better coordination This addresses a core infrastructure need as Livepeer orchestrators expand beyond video transcoding into AI workloads, requiring better data coordination across the decentralized network.

**Daydream**, a new open-source platform for real-time video-to-video AI transformations, has launched on Livepeer's decentralized infrastructure. The platform enables real-time AI video processing and is now live at [daydream.live](https://daydream.live). Key features: - Community-powered development - Open source architecture - Built on Livepeer's decentralized network - Real-time video AI capabilities Livepeer is supporting this initiative through delegator workshops and network infrastructure support. *Try the early preview to explore real-time AI video transformations.*

Peter from AI SPE discusses the evolution of real-time AI video on Livepeer in the latest Fireside episode. Key developments include: - Transition to Bring Your Own Container (BYOC) architecture - Introduction of ComfyStream for customizable AI pipelines - New community-driven development approach This follows recent episodes featuring UFO's decentralized radio integration and earlier discussions with Streamplace, ORIGIN STRIES, and Eliza agents about AI-powered video innovations.

Daydream is set to demonstrate ComfyStream at ComfyCon, the first official global ComfyUI conference in Shanghai on March 29-30, 2024. The presentation will showcase how ComfyStream integrates with the Livepeer ecosystem to enable real-time AI video workflows. This follows their recent collaboration at NYU, where students explored Real-Time Video AI applications with Livepeer and ComfyUI. Join the event: [ComfyCon Registration](https://lu.ma/ComfyCon)
