Andreessen Horowitz's crypto division has taken a decisive step into AI infrastructure by leading a $15 million seed investment in Poseidon. The startup aims to build a decentralized protocol for sourcing and validating training data—a critical bottleneck in AI development as high-quality datasets become increasingly scarce.
Chris Dixon, a16z's managing partner, framed the investment as foundational infrastructure for the next generation of AI models. "Data quality determines model performance," he noted, highlighting how Poseidon's token-incentivized network could disrupt the current centralized data brokerage market.
