Probably Nothing 124: Arweave Course & AI on DevNTell

Last week, we released the first lessons of our Arweave 101 track on D_D Academy. In this track, you learn how to use permanent decentralized storage to host your DApps.

This week, we have the CEO and the DevRel Engineer of Lilypad Network on DevNTell, so if you're into decentralized AI, check it out!

In this week's episode of DevNTell, Alison Haire (CEO) and Phil Billingsby (DevRel Engineer) of LilyPad Network will discuss the groundbreaking serverless and permissionless distributed computing platform originally developed at Protocol Labs. This platform democratizes access to high-performance computing.

Viewers will learn how to use AI on LilyPad in a manner consistent with Web3 ethos using just an API call.

Join us this Friday, June 13, at 3:30 pm UTC.
