The Qubic ecosystem pushes the boundaries of the traditional PoW by employing AI training tasks in its consensus mechanism. Here, validators, known as Computors, backed by miners, often referred to as "AI miners," transform the computational energy expended in the mining process into valuable, beneficial outcomes.

The uPoW protocol directs this computational power of nearly hundred thousand AI-miners towards the AI-training which are creating billions artificial neural networks (ANNs).
