Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to be the most transformative technology of our time, with the power to revolutionize the world in unimaginable ways. It has the potential to address some of the world’s most pressing challenges, from climate change and poverty, to disease prevention and beyond.

However, for AI to be a force for good and reach its full positive potential, accessibility to a wide range of computing resources (i.e., “the cloud”) by a wider population is crucial. That’s why we’re building VALDI — the most powerful distributed computer in the world.

VALDI is a distributed cloud platform that provides reliable, affordable, and sustainable computing power with democratized computing resources required for AI by making them accessible to all. By harnessing under-utilized, existing, computing resources worldwide, we can reduce carbon emissions, and reliance on scarce resources by reducing the need for new data centers and servers. We are also reducing the dependence on a very limited number of providers that act with little competition. Our goal is to ensure that anyone, regardless of their background or resources, can utilize them to develop AI applications and contribute to a better world.

We aim to empower every individual and organization, regardless of their background or resources, with the ability to harness computing resources for developing AI applications that tackle the world’s most formidable challenges. VALDI serves as the platform that enables this vision, providing reliable, affordable, and sustainably sourced computing power for AI applications.

Imagine a future where AI acts as a catalyst for transformative change by leading the charge in developing life-saving medicines, forging sustainable energy sources, and revolutionizing education for all. Through VALDI, we strive to bring this future into reality by making the much-needed computing power accessible to all without adding significantly to climate change.

To bring our vision to life, we have devised a comprehensive plan that outlines our strategic steps:

Step 1: Forging strong partnerships: We have established partnerships with several institutional-tier data centers that ensures access to high-performance computers and GPUs for research institutions and enterprises.

Additionally, we’re building strong relationships with a large number of customers who are signing up to VALDI and adding us to their approved vendor list for longer-term commitments. Our customers have experienced savings of up to 50% on their cloud costs, leveraging the power of VALDI while adhering to the strictest security, privacy and regulatory standards, including GDPR.

Step 2: Utilize business devices during downtime: In the near future we will leverage idle (when they are not in use) on-premise GPUs, workstations, laptops and desktops scattered in offices across the globe and connected to the internet. By repurposing these resources, we can provide medium-powered AI applications to startups poised to make a global impact.

Step 3: Harness dormant power: We recognize the dormant power of idle mobile phones and home based laptops, desktops and gaming rigs to power smaller AI applications. This will unlock a world of AI education for students and empower the next generation of innovators across borders by getting them access to cloud resources at very affordable prices.

Step 4: Establishing the world’s largest distributed computer: Our ultimate goal is to establish the world’s largest distributed computer, seamlessly running on every device. This will enable accessible AI and computing resources for the benefit of all.

Our plan will enable universal accessibility to the computing power needed for developing AI applications, regardless of an individual’s background or available resources. By doing so, we anticipate accelerating AI progress and unlocking groundbreaking applications that can profoundly enhance our lives.

We embark on this journey with great enthusiasm, fully aware of VALDI’s potential to make positive changes to the world of AI while ensuring we meet the highest standards of Security and Data privacy for our providers/customers.

At VALDI, we are not just building a company; but hoping to ignite a movement to make AI accessible to everyone and to bring about positive change on a global scale.

Join us by signing up at VALDI.ai on this extraordinary journey of transformation. Together, we will shape a future where AI empowers and uplifts every individual.
