Bittensor provides access to the AI of the Bittensor network via APIs, exactly like how you would use Web2 APIs like OpenAI API or Google APIs

Eternal AI takes a different approach with smart contracts. Instead of calling centralized APIs, developers will make decentralized smart contract calls.

Here are some code examples of how to use AIs within your smart contracts.
