Everything Bagel: How ZKPs Are Scaling AI with Privacy & Ownership with Founder, Bidhan Roy

The Index Podcast

How can developers monetize open-source AI while preserving ownership and privacy?

In this episode of Everything Bagel, co-hosts Alex Kehaya and Bidhan Roy, Founder of Bagel Network, dive into the revolutionary role of zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) in open-source AI monetization.

Bidhan shares how Bagel Network is transforming the AI landscape by enabling developers to earn from their contributions while maintaining full control and privacy. They discuss the game-changing breakthrough of ZK LoRa, a zero-knowledge proof system that slashes AI training verification times from weeks to under two seconds—paving the way for scalable, decentralized AI.

The conversation explores how community-driven ASI (Artificial Super Intelligence) can evolve through modular AI models, making decentralized AGI (Artificial General Intelligence) more accessible and cost-effective. Plus, they unpack how The Bakery, Bagel’s latest product, empowers developers to stack AI components like LEGO bricks for greater scalability and efficiency.

🔥 Key Topics Discussed:
✅ How zero-knowledge proofs are reshaping AI ownership and monetization
✅ The impact of Bagel Network’s ZK LoRa verification system
✅ The rise of domain-specific ASI models and real-world applications
✅ How The Bakery fuels decentralized AI development at scale
✅ The potential for community-built AGI running on crypto rails
