We are aware of the amazing computing power of our laptops and phones. What if the scientist around the world would be able to use it when its lying idle (which is most of the time)? What if everyone with a computing device, a browser, and a decent internet connection would be able to contribute to such amazing research happening around the world? Today's world is a sucker for computing resources. ML, AR, VR, Blockchain and tons of other cutting edge tech require tons of computing resources.
