Truflation, a financial data provider, has launched its own AI Index, a tool designed to monitor the performance of companies in the generative AI sector and the real-world assets supporting them.

This launch — shared with crypto.news via a press release — coincides with significant growth in the global generative AI market, currently valued at $44.89 billion and projected to reach $1.3 trillion by 2032. 

The AI Index consists of six companies: Artificial S-Intelligence Alliance, Akash Network, AIOZ Network, Bittensor, Echelon Prime, and Render.

Stefan Rust, CEO of Truflation, said the index “targets investors seeking growth by leveraging real-time data and diversifying across core asset classes.”

The index serves as a benchmark for both traditional and decentralized finance platforms.

What this index means 

Truflation utilizes decentralized data feeds, indexes, and oracles, which are essential components of decentralized finance. These tools provide users with accurate pricing for real-world assets, helping them make informed decisions.

Truflation works with over 80 data partners, tracks more than 20 million items, and offers specialized dashboards for monitoring inflation in countries like the U.S., U.K., and Argentina, according to the release.

For those unfamiliar with decentralized finance, it refers to financial services that run on blockchain technology, eliminating intermediaries like banks, which allows for more direct and efficient transactions.
