Polyhedra Launches Global zkML Festival to Celebrate the Release of zkPyTorch
Palo Alto, California, May 2nd, 2025, Chainwire
Polyhedra is proud to announce the zkML Festival, a celebration of verifiable AI running from May 5–23 across major cities and digital channels. This global event marks the launch of zkPyTorch, the breakthrough compiler that enables real-world PyTorch models to be used in zero-knowledge proofs — benefiting developers, enterprises, and most importantly, safeguarding the end user.
The zkML Festival builds on a series of milestones for Polyhedra, including the debut of zkML with UC Berkeley in November 2024 and the momentum of February’s Explore Expander Bootcamp, where developers submitted high-performance zkML applications built with Polyhedra’s high-speed prover system, Expander.
Introducing World zkML Day May 15th
On May 15th, Polyhedra will celebrate World zkML Day by hosting in-person meetups with the executive and founding team in London, San Francisco, New York, Sydney, Singapore, Bali, and Beijing, midway through a 3-week slate of live-streamed shows, educational content and community activations.
Featured guests include:
- Jon Rettinger, tech entrepreneur and content creator with over 1.6M YouTube subscribers, whose recent video introduced verifiable AI and zkML to a broad tech-savvy audience.
- Siraj Raval, renowned AI educator and founder of School of AI, with over 800K followers across platforms, who has released video case study exploring a real-world application of zkML and its value to application layer AI products.
Polyhedra’s zkML Festival follows its recent partnership announcement with Aethir’s AI x Web3 Alliance, reinforcing its role as a leading force at the intersection of scalable compute and verifiable AI infrastructure.
“We built zkML to prove that AI doesn’t have to be a leap of faith. This festival brings that proof to life — live, verifiable, and global,” said Samuel Pearton, CMO at Polyhedra.
The zkML Festival also marks a new era for the developer ecosystem, with prizes, creator content, and educational activations designed to show the world what happens when trust, performance, and creativity align.
