Unique features of Bittensor

Opportunity to earn back the compute they have done unlike other blockchain models where all the computational power spent will be wasted I you do not solve the puzzle.
TAO in comparison to Bitcoin uses less power making it much more cost-effective
Works on the model of DAO, allowing for more diversity
Open to learning about newer architectures in AI
Incentives are based on work quality that is of logits and embeddings

I cannot comment on the price of TAO since it is not available on any exchanges as of now, it is only useful majorly for validators earning them voting rights and more.

I am curious to know how AI and mining are incorporated into the network, is the same node can be made as a mining node and AI engineer or they are different from each other and need to be setup separately? How does that work in tangible form?

I like that Bittensor is thinking forward, and I especially like the concept of being able to earn back on the computational efforts one makes. I think the mining node and AI engineer can work simultaneously depending on the algorithm behind the network. Since it is an AI network using crypto tech it is entirely possible that they can be accessed through same node.

In the Bittensor network, servers have the opportunity to earn back the compute they have done, unlike other blockchain models where computational power is wasted if the puzzle is not solved. Bittensor's use of TAO makes it more cost-effective than other cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin, which require more power. Bittensor also uses a DAO model, which allows for more diversity in the network. The incentives in Bittensor are based on the quality of work, such as logits and embeddings.

As far as the incorporation of AI and mining in the network, it's not clear how this works in practice. It's possible that the same node can be used for both mining and AI engineering, but this would depend on the specific algorithms and infrastructure used by the network. It's also possible that mining and AI engineering would require separate setup and infrastructure. Without more information, it's difficult to say for sure how these elements would work together in the Bittensor network.
