DKGcon 2024: Breaking down trust and reliability barriers of artificial intelligence

Web3,
artificial
intelligence
(AI),
and
Internet
innovators
and
builders
will
gather
at
the
Decentralized
Knowledge
Graph
Conference
(DKGcon)
2024
on
October
24
and
25
in
Amsterdam,
Netherlands.
With
the
increasing
use
of
generative
AI
(genAI)
technologies
in
business
and
our
everyday
lives,
the
need
for
reliable,
verifiable,
and
sustainable
AI
solutions
is
evident.
This
year’s
second
edition
of
DKGcon
under
the
title AI
Meets
Reliability
will
address
how
to
drive
trust
in
AI
with
decentralized
technologies
of
Web3,
such
as
blockchain,
and
knowledge
graphs,
a
technology
that
was
until
recently
primarily
used
by
Internet
giants
such
as
Amazon,
Google,
and
Facebook.

graphs. They
will
be
discussing
and
showcasing
how
to
use
these
technologies
to
build
