This was my reaction too. How do you “prove” my gradient is valid?

Well perhaps one way is you could have another LLM take a look at the data you are submitting and have it predict p(useful|not useful) , and create an incentive for users to generate authentic data

Indeed very half-baked.

This must be quite an insult to the inventor of fully decentralised AI. In 2012 Prof. Jelasity invented gradient mining with SGD, https://arxiv.org/pdf/1109.1396 Works reasonably well, you probably also need a ledger like Trustchain for accountability and Sybil protection. Consensus is too costly. This problem is unsolved and actively worked on academia for decades.

you can randomly ask sometimes 4 different nodes to calculate the same gradient, and see who is cheeting.

Ian (Goodfellow), is that you ?
Every time there is a discriminator, someone suspects Ian.
Yeah, let's not be so adversarial towards Ian.
