Hosted by Sentient and Symbolic Capital, the Decentralized AGI Summit will bring together top thought leaders in decentralized AI such as Vitalik Buterin, Sandeep Nailwal, Illia Polosukhin, and Sreeram Kannan.
As the development of artificial general intelligence (AGI) systems accelerates, concerns are growing that centralized AI controlled by a small number of actors will pose a major threat to humanity. The first Decentralized AGI Summit brought together top experts in AI and blockchain fields such as Vitalik Buterin, Sandeep Nailwal, Illia Polosukhin, Sreeram Kannanm, and others to discuss how decentralized multi-stakeholder governance models enabled by blockchain technology can help develop We will explore whether it can be done. AGI is safer, more transparent, and serves the greater good.
“The rapid acceleration of centralized AI and its integration into everyday life has brought humanity to a crossroads between two future worlds,” says Sandeep Nailwal. “On the one hand, we can choose a closed world. This world is controlled by a small number of closed source models run by large conglomerates. On the other hand, we can choose open world. In this world, models are natively open source, inferences are verifiable, and value flows back to stakeholders. An open world is the world we want to live in, but this can only be achieved by leveraging blockchain to make AI more transparent and fair.”
The Decentralized AGI Summit will be held on Monday, February 26th from 3-9 PM MST. It is free and open to the public to attend at https://decentralizedagi.org/.
“We are excited to foster important discussions about developing secure and ethical AGI systems that leverage decentralization and multi-stakeholder governance,” said Kenzi Wang, co-founder and general partner of Symbolic Capital. “Bringing together some of the biggest names across both the AI and web3 spaces will help advance thinking in this important area of technology.”
