AI Horde

AI Horde is a distributed network of volunteer-run workers that generate images and text on demand. Instead of relying on a single company's servers, the service spreads requests across many independent contributors who donate their GPU resources. Users can access image generation (via models like Stable Diffusion) and text generation through a free tier or paid priority access. The service has been operating for over a year and operates on a points-based system; free users earn kudos by contributing their own hardware, or can purchase priority access. It's designed for people who want affordable AI generation without vendor lock-in, and for those interested in participating in a decentralised alternative to traditional AI services.
