In this episode of Living on Blockchain, we dive deep into Lightchain AI — a newly launched Layer 1 protocol that’s trying to decentralize artificial intelligence itself. With its Proof of Intelligence consensus mechanism, AIVM, and AI staking model, Lightchain is promising a world where AI runs on-chain.

But how much of it is real — and how much is vaporware?

We unpack:

What Lightchain AI actually does

How Proof of Intelligence works

Key features like the AIVM and compute staking

The major concerns around team transparency, audits, and overengineering

Why this project is worth watching, but not blind trust
