Open Decentralized AGI Importance
- Sentient aims to build an open, decentralized AGI to avoid centralizing forces dominating AI development.
- This mirrors the late 90s internet era, emphasizing open systems over monopolistic control.
Crypto Enables AI Verification
- Verification is crucial for AI safety, alignment, and trust in an open AI ecosystem.
- Crypto can enable economic alignment and guarantees needed to verify AI model origins.
ZKML and Client Privacy
- Zero Knowledge Machine Learning (ZKML) allows proving data computations privately on user devices.
- Client-side proving enhances privacy by enabling proofs at the user's location, like phones.
