Sentient – ​​Community-built open AGI

Dr. Himanshu Tyagi is a lead author at Sentient, a blockchain project that enables community-built open AGI. He conducts research in the field of information theory and applies its principles to solve real-world problems. He is currently a professor at the Indian Institute of Science, Bangalore.

Why you should listen

Sentient is an AI research organization promoting a new open AGI economy for AI developers and creators. Platforms and protocols are being developed to enable open source AI developers to (1) monetize their models, data, and other innovations, (2) collaborate with each other to co-develop powerful AIs, and (3) key stakeholders to be in a new world Open AGI economy.

Today, AI development is almost entirely controlled by a few organizations and a few individuals within those organizations. These organizations are in a feverish race to build AGI while making important decisions for all of humanity.

On the other hand, a large portion of humanity is working to develop AI developer and user skills. They have limited opportunities to demonstrate and contribute their skills and even fewer opportunities to gain employment.

Sentient aims to bring ownership rights to open AI development. By inventing science and technology that enables everyone to develop, collaborate, own and monetize AI products, we will usher in an era of AI entrepreneurship.

Sentient is building an AI platform where builders can collaborate and monetize their innovations. AI developers are the workhorses and key players of this economy, the ones who innovate and collaborate to develop powerful new AI offerings. The underlying blockchain protocol and incentive mechanism provide the necessary economic alignment required for the development of Open AGI in this collective offering.

For all of this to work, it is necessary that the powerful AI models hosted on Sentient are “Open, Monetizable and Loyal” (OML) – “loyal” models are those that are connected to the community that created them , staying consistent with what is enforced by the underlying blockchain protocol.

Sentient has opened up a new ambitious field of AI research with OML models. OML models will power a shared open AGI economy, supporting millions of AI agents and more downstream applications for billions of AI users.

The next generation of AI will be able to think, plan and act strategically. This AI will be built using new innovative agents and by learning from interactions between these agents, underlying models and people. The Sentient AI platform will enable the community and the AI ​​it builds to participate in and learn from these interactions, with the underlying blockchain protocol ensuring all are incentivized.
