Akash CEO Greg Osuri backs virtual machines to expand decentralized AI compute access

In an interview with Ecoinimist, Akash Network CEO Greg Osuri said decentralized AI's next step is widening access to compute rather than chasing new virtualization. He emphasized virtual machines to match how ML practitioners work and described blockchain as a coordination layer for identity, access, and payments. Akash has discussed retiring its Cosmos app chain and is evaluating Solana.
