# AI Arena

> Discover DGrid AI Arena, a gamified hub where users rate AI models, complete daily tasks, climb the leaderboard, and earn $DGAI airdrop points.

**DGrid AI Arena** is a dedicated hub inside the DGrid platform where users help evaluate and improve DGrid's AI models — and earn points that convert into **\$DGAI token airdrop weight**.

By completing simple daily "AI Battles" and inviting new users, participants:

* Compare real AI model responses and signal which are better
* Earn points for each decision and referral
* Accumulate points toward **\$DGAI token airdrop allocation**
* Compete on a **weekly leaderboard** for a shared **300,000 pts prize pool**

DGrid AI Arena is not just a gamified layer. It is a core component of DGrid's AI infrastructure that uses community judgment to:

* Evaluate model quality
* Guide model optimization and deployment
* Continuously align DGrid AI with real user expectations

## Key Concepts

#### AI Arena

The **AI Arena** is the entry point within DGrid where all AI reward and evaluation activities take place. It hosts:

* **AI Battle**: daily missions where users compare AI answers
* **Points and Rewards**: tracking of earned points, weekly rank, and airdrop allocation

Access AI Arena from the DGrid interface or directly at:
[`https://dgrid.ai/arena`](https://dgrid.ai/arena)

#### AI Battle

**AI Battle** is the main interaction flow in DGrid AI Arena. Users:

* Receive a random question or prompt
* See **two anonymous AI model responses**
* Choose which answer they think is better

Each decision yields points and feeds into DGrid's model evaluation and training pipeline.

#### Points

**Points** are the internal metric of contribution in DGrid AI Arena. They are:

* Earned by:
  * Completing daily AI Battle missions
  * Referring new users
* Used for:
  * Determining your **\$DGAI token airdrop weight**
  * Competing on the **weekly leaderboard** for bonus point prizes

#### Rewards

DGrid AI Arena rewards participation with **real on-chain value**:

* **\$DGAI airdrop allocation** — total accumulated points convert to airdrop weight at TGE
* **Weekly leaderboard prize** — Top 50 users share a **300,000 pts pool** each week, proportional to weekly points earned

## How AI Battle Works

### Daily Missions

* Each user can complete up to **5 Daily Missions per day**.
* Every mission is designed to be **quick and intuitive**, taking only a short moment.
* Missions reset daily, encouraging consistent participation over time.

### Mission Flow

For each mission:

1. **Prompt Display**

* The user is shown a *random question or prompt*.

2. **Two Anonymous AI Responses**

* The prompt is followed by **two AI answers**, each from potentially different models.
* The models are anonymous; only the content of the answers is visible.

3. **User Choice**

* The user reads both answers carefully.
* The user selects the answer they believe:
  * Better fits the prompt
  * Better matches their expectations or needs

4. **Points Awarded Based on Consensus**

* After enough users have voted, a **community majority** emerges for that mission.
* The user's reward depends on whether their choice aligns with this majority (details in the next section).

### Role in Model Training and Evaluation

Every vote in AI Battle is a **data point** for DGrid's AI network. DGrid aggregates these user choices to:

* **Evaluate model performance**: Identify which models consistently produce preferred answers
* **Understand user preferences**: What users value in terms of clarity, helpfulness, safety, and relevance
* **Guide model evolution**: Prioritize better-performing models; inform fine-tuning strategies and deployment decisions

At scale, thousands of daily micro-decisions across many users form a powerful **human feedback signal**, enabling DGrid to:

* Build a more **reliable, human-aligned AI LLM network**
* Improve robustness across diverse question types
* Move beyond static benchmarks to **continuous, live evaluation**

## Points System

### How Points Are Earned

There are two primary ways to earn points in DGrid AI Arena:

1. **Daily Missions in AI Battle**

* Each mission awards **5–10 points**:
  * **10 points** if your choice matches the **community majority**
  * **5 points** if your choice does **not** match the majority
* There is **no "wrong" participation**:
  * Even if you choose differently from the majority, you still earn points
  * Every vote is treated as valuable feedback
* With **up to 5 missions per day**, users can accumulate points steadily while contributing to model training.

2. **Referral Points**

* Users can invite others to join DGrid AI Arena.
* For **each valid referred user**, the referrer earns bonus points.
* Referrals allow users to **scale rewards via community growth**, not just their own activity.

### How Points Are Used

Your **total points** serve two key purposes:

* **\$DGAI token airdrop weight** — points directly determine your allocation at Token Generation Event (TGE)
* **Weekly leaderboard ranking** — your weekly points determine your share of the 300,000 pts prize pool

The more points you earn through missions and referrals:

* The larger your future \$DGAI airdrop allocation
* The higher your relative position on the weekly leaderboard
* The greater your share of the weekly point prize pool

## Rewards Model

### Points → \$DGAI Airdrop Allocation

All accumulated points convert to **\$DGAI token airdrop weight** at TGE:

* **No minimum threshold** — every point contributes to your allocation
* **Early adopter multipliers** — the sooner you participate, the more each point is worth
* **Snapshot announced in advance** — the community is notified before the airdrop snapshot is taken

<Tip>
  The more you contribute early → The higher your multiplier → The larger your \$DGAI airdrop share.
</Tip>

### Weekly Leaderboard: Bonus Point Prizes

DGrid AI Arena includes a **Weekly Leaderboard** that rewards the most active participants each week.

* **Weekly Prize Pool**: **300,000 pts** per week
* **Eligibility**: Top 50 users by weekly points
* **Reset**: Every Sunday at 00:00 UTC
* **Distribution**: Proportional to weekly points earned — higher rank = larger share; Top 1 earns the most

### Reward Structure Summary

* **Casual users**
  * Earn via consistent daily missions
  * Accumulate points steadily toward airdrop allocation
* **Power users & top contributors**
  * Benefit from both:
    * Long-term airdrop allocation growth, and
    * Additional weekly leaderboard point prizes

This **dual reward mechanism** ensures that all participation is recognized, while also **incentivizing sustained and high-impact engagement**.
