Together AI and Pearl Research Labs Team Up to Reduce the Cost of AI Inference
Together AI
Together AI and Pearl Research Labs launched a discounted inference endpoint for Gemma-4-31B-it-pearl that uses Proof of Useful Work to monetize AI workloads through cryptocurrency. The endpoint offers reduced inference costs by leveraging Pearl's system to generate crypto emissions from AI computations. This allows users to offset inference expenses through a mechanism that ties AI processing directly to blockchain transactions.
