The cooperation presents a novel method for validating and securely accessing 17 years of internet crawl data.
The goal of this launch is to create the industry’s first cryptographically secure and immutable archive of internet data.
This is accomplished by using an immutable blockchain network that is based on Constellation and is cryptographically secured. A Web3 ecosystem that has been validated by the United States Department of Defense, Constellation Network, has announced today that it has launched a customized blockchain that was developed in partnership with the Common Crawl Foundation. The goal of this launch is to create the industry’s first cryptographically secure and immutable archive of internet data for the purpose of artificial intelligence training and development. The cooperation presents a novel method for validating and securely accessing 17 years of internet crawl data, which spans over 9 petabytes and is used by 80 percent of Large Language Models (LLMs) for the purpose of training artificial intelligence. This is accomplished by using an immutable blockchain network that is based on Constellation and is cryptographically secured. This revolutionary application-specific network, also known as Metagraph, works to solve important challenges in the development of artificial intelligence while also exploring huge new use cases for blockchain technology in developing sectors. These use cases include ethical sourcing, data provenance, and privacy. Additionally, in order to ensure the safety of the archived internet crawls, the network will make use of the DAG utility asset provided by Constellation. By changing the emphasis from consumer expenses or gas fees, which are common of many other layer-one networks, to an operational expenditure, this marks a substantial development in the utilization of crypto as a mechanism for enterprises to notarize data. Key Technological Innovations
Comprehensive Data Archiving: A record of the internet’s history that cannot be altered in any way, offering unparalleled transparency and traceability for artificial intelligence and machine learning datasets.
End-to-End Encryption: It is a cryptographic security that guarantees the integrity of data throughout the whole lifecycle of artificial intelligence development.
Ethical AI Framework: An ethical artificial intelligence framework is a strong approach that addresses problems around the collection, storage, and use of data in large language models. Alex Brandes, CTO of Constellation Network said: Constellation is a leading blockchain network that is driving innovation via on-chain data security. It is collaborating with major global stakeholders, such as the United States Department of Defense, in order to offer innovations that are revolutionary and of the next generation. Industry Applications The data archive that is enabled by blockchain technology is already garnering the attention of sophisticated artificial intelligence research groups. In order to add immutability, auditability, and proof of authorship to its training models and to develop advanced watermarking technologies, TraceAI, a project that was developed through the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the SBIR program, is currently in the testing stages of developing their own application-specific network, which is built on Constellation. In addition, TraceAI will make use of the Constellation-built solution that Common Crawl has developed in order to further expand their work in blockchain-encrypted artificial intelligence to include monitoring the source origin of data. Kevin Jackson, Vice President of Space Domain Communications & Commercialization for Forward EdgeAI, emphasizes the significance of this breakthrough: Looking Forward Over the course of the next several months, Constellation Network and Common Crawl Foundation will collaborate in order to broaden the scope of solution sets for artificial intelligence developers and better integrate the provision of cryptographically validated access to the crawl as a component of the usual release process. Rich Skrenta, Executive Director of the Common Crawl stated: The Common Crawl Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization and is committed to making a copy of the internet available to the general people at no cost. They have a web archive that contains petabytes of data that they have gathered over the course of years of web crawling. This archive is an essential resource for scholars, corporations, and developers all around the globe. It is possible to find evidence of this integration on the transaction viewer that Constellation provides, which is referred to as the “DAG explorer,” and developers may begin leveraging verified historical crawls for artificial intelligence applications. Regarding the further solutions that will be created by Constellation, Forward Edge-AI, and Common Crawl, we ask that you please follow along. Concerning the Forward Edge-AI A revolution in responsible and inclusive artificial intelligence (AI) for the welfare of mankind is being led by Forward Edge-AI, which is at the vanguard of this next revolution. Since the company’s inception in 2019, the objective has been to become the preeminent player in the field of artificial intelligence and to spearhead the revolution associated with the integration of human intellect with cutting-edge technology.
