Two AIs walk into a bar.

But the difference in approach is already warping the GenAI landscape — and who gets to shape it. That’s the frame: GenAI isn’t good or bad. It’s just barely legal .

'Beneficial Super AI': How Decentralization Might Save Us

"Things fall apart; the center cannot hold / Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world." - William Butler Yeats Artificial Intelligence (AI) and blockchain technology have emerged as two groundbreaking forces revolutionizing their respective domains. AI has taken leaps in transforming industries with its ability to automate tasks, extract insights from data, and make intelligent decisions. Meanwhile, blockchain has disrupted traditional systems by enabling decentralized and transparent transactions, ensuring trust, and establishing immutable records. The convergence of these two cutting-edge technologies opens up new possibilities extending beyond their individual capacities. This post will explore one of the intersections of AI and blockchain, namely ways in which blockchain is being harnessed to develop AI itself. Specifically, we will look at a platform called SingularityNET and some of the exciting pro...
