Walrus could matter a lot for AI + Web3.
AI runs on large data. And most AI data today sits in centralized storage—controlled by one company or one server. That’s not ideal for transparency, auditing, or shared ownership. Walrus targets exactly that space: large objects stored in a decentralized way. If Walrus works well, it could support AI datasets, model checkpoints, media libraries, and app content without relying on a single provider. The upside is big: more open, verifiable data. The risk is also real: decentralized storage must prove it can be reliable at scale, especially under heavy demand. Walrus won’t win by marketing. It will win by being cheaper, stable, and easy enough that developers actually use it.
