Dr. Max Li, a leading figure in decentralized AI research at Columbia University, has been a driving force in advancing the translation of academic innovation into real-world applications. The concept of OORT originated in 2018 from a student team project in Dr. Li’s “Reinforcement Learning” course, where the idea of decentralized AI was first proposed. The final project of that course became the prototype for OORT. Since then, the OORT team has continued to develop its technology at the intersection of academia and industry, based out of Columbia University labs. Their work has resulted in multiple academic papers published at top-tier blockchain and AI conferences, as well as several patents.
