The integration of DePIN and AI will reshape Bots technology

The combination of decentralized physical infrastructure networks ( DePIN ) and artificial intelligence ( AI ) is bringing revolutionary changes to robotics technology. This integration not only allows AI to acquire more authentic and diverse data, but also improves capital efficiency and accelerates the decentralization process.

DePIN Empowers AI

DePIN can become the "facial features" and "limbs" of AI, helping it to perceive the real world comprehensively and take action. This combination will enable AI to shift from mere information processing to genuine embodied intelligence.

DePIN can provide three key types of data for AI:

1. Human-operated data: high quality but higher cost
2. Synthetic Data: Suitable for training in specific scenarios
3. Video learning data: Lack of direct physical interaction

This data will significantly enhance the embodied intelligence service capabilities of AI.

Improve capital efficiency and promote decentralization

Traditional AI models mainly rely on computing power, while intelligent Bots also require expensive physical equipment. The DePIN network can decentralize the capital burden, allowing small startup teams to have the opportunity to participate in development. This decentralized approach not only accelerates data collection and evaluation but also improves resource utilization efficiency.

For example, a certain laboratory obtained high-performance GPU computing power through the DePIN project, providing researchers with the necessary computational capacity. This model allows researchers worldwide to train and evaluate models without capital constraints.

Improve Business Efficiency

DePIN-driven smart Bots are exploring new profit models. For example, an AI agent can sustain its finances through live streaming and token appreciation. This model demonstrates how DePIN supports AI development through decentralized ownership and token incentives.

Current Status of Industry Development

Despite the rapid growth in the number and market value of DePIN projects, they currently only account for 0.1% of the entire AI market, indicating significant growth potential. In terms of financing, mature projects are scaling up, but there are relatively few emerging early-stage projects.

The market share in various sub-sectors is still very small, such as 0.002% in the wireless transmission field, 0.03% in the computing field, 0.001% in the energy field, and 0.2% in the identity verification field. This indicates that the industry is still in its early stages, with many opportunities.

Future Outlook

The combination of DePIN and AI will drive the robotics industry towards a more open and sustainable direction. This integration not only accelerates AI training and hardware optimization but also lowers the development threshold, enabling more participants to join this technological revolution. We look forward to seeing a robotics technology ecosystem driven by a global community rather than dominated by a few tech giants.
