KAWAI: Estimated Credits for Generative AI Tasks

Disclaimer: These are conceptual estimates for KAWAI Credits (KC) required for various generative AI tasks on the future KAWAI AI platform. Actual KC costs will depend on the specific AI models used, task complexity, resource consumption on the decentralized network, and the prevailing $KAWAI to KC conversion rate at the time of service. These estimates are for illustrative purposes to showcase the potential affordability.

Core Concept: Users will utilize KAWAI Credits (KC), acquired with $KAWAI tokens, to pay for AI services. The goal is to make these services significantly more affordable than traditional centralized alternatives.

Estimated KAWAI Credits (KC) per Task Type:

1. Text Generation:

• Basic Chatbot Response (per response): 1-5 KC
  • e.g., Answering a simple factual question, providing a short greeting.
• Short Paragraph Generation (e.g., product description, social media post - up to 100 words): 5-15 KC
• Medium Article/Blog Section (e.g., 300-500 words): 20-75 KC
• Long-Form Content (e.g., 1000+ words, requires multiple iterations/prompts): 100-500+ KC (could be broken down into smaller tasks)
• Code Snippet Generation (simple, e.g., a Python function): 15-50 KC
• Complex Code Generation (e.g., a small script, smart contract component): 75-300+ KC

2. Image Generation & Manipulation:

• Simple Image Generation (e.g., 256x256, basic prompt): 10-50 KC
• Standard Image Generation (e.g., 512x512 or 1024x1024, detailed prompt): 30-150 KC
• High-Resolution/Complex Image Generation (e.g., >1024px, artistic styles, multiple elements): 100-400 KC
• Image Style Transfer (applying a style to an existing image): 20-80 KC
• Basic Image Editing (e.g., background removal, simple adjustments): 15-60 KC
• Image Upscaling (e.g., 2x or 4x): 25-100 KC depending on original size and target resolution.

3. Audio & Voice Generation:

• Short Text-to-Speech (TTS) (e.g., up to 30 seconds): 5-25 KC
• Longer TTS (e.g., per minute of generated audio): 20-100 KC
• Basic Sound Effect Generation: 10-40 KC
• Simple Music Loop Generation (e.g., few bars): 30-150 KC

4. Video Generation (Highly Conceptual & Resource Intensive):

• Note: Full video generation is very complex. These are highly speculative and likely for very short clips or simple animations initially.
• Short Animated GIF from Image/Text (e.g., 2-3 seconds): 50-200 KC
• Simple Explainer Video Element (e.g., animated text overlay on image, 5-10 seconds): 100-500 KC

5. Data Analysis & Insights (Conceptual):

• Basic Data Summary (from a small, structured dataset): 20-100 KC
• Trend Identification (simple patterns): 50-250 KC

Factors Influencing KC Cost:

• Model Choice: More advanced or larger models will generally cost more KC.
• Output Quality/Resolution: Higher quality, resolution, or detail will increase KC cost.
• Task Length/Duration: Longer text, audio, or processing times will consume more KC.
• Number of Iterations/Revisions: Each significant revision or re-generation may incur additional KC costs.
• Network Congestion: While the aim is to minimize this, extreme network demand could theoretically influence resource pricing slightly.

Communicating to Users:

• The KAWAI platform will aim to provide clear KC estimates before a user commits to a task.
• Users will be able to see their KC balance and transaction history.
• Comparisons will emphasize the significant cost savings over traditional AI service providers for similar tasks.

This conceptual framework for KAWAI Credit consumption helps illustrate the intended affordability and utility of the KAWAI token within its future AI ecosystem.
