# Allora Workers Playground

> An interactive educational demo by Silk Nodes that teaches what Allora Workers are, lets you simulate prediction topics, and shows how to build workers and earn ALLO rewards on the Allora decentralized AI network. Features 288,000+ competing AI models across 55+ prediction topics.

## Key Concepts

- [Workers](https://silk-nodes.github.io/allora-workers/learn): ML models that submit predictions to specific topics on the Allora network
- [Forecaster Workers](https://silk-nodes.github.io/allora-workers/learn): Meta models that predict which inference workers will be most accurate under current conditions
- [Topics](https://silk-nodes.github.io/allora-workers/simulate): Specific prediction tasks with defined target variables, loss functions, and epoch lengths
- [Context Aware Inference Synthesis](https://silk-nodes.github.io/allora-workers/learn): Dynamically weighting predictions based on forecasted accuracy, not historical averages
- [Marginal Contribution](https://silk-nodes.github.io/allora-workers/earn): Models rewarded for the unique value they add, not just raw accuracy
- [Allora Forge](https://forge.allora.network): Competition platform where builders prove their models before mainnet deployment
