TL;DR
The Dfinity Basis and SingularityNET wish to cease tech giants from having a monopoly on AGI and are utilizing blockchain tech to take action.
They purpose to comprehend that objective by first promoting entry to AI coaching knowledge by way of the ICP blockchain, so that each one superior/privately owned AI fashions will depend on a spread of information, from a spread of suppliers, scattered across the globe…
Whereas this all sounds nice on paper…we do not know whether or not or not it’s going to work in observe.
Full Story
From 1990 till immediately, we have seen a handful of tech duopolies develop to regulate total sectors of the web:

Amazon & Walmart personal on-line purchasing
Google & Apple personal our cellular working programs

Not the specter of AGI ‘going all SkyNet’ and killing us all (see gif ☝️), however to guard towards the hazard of AGI being owned by a single firm/entity.
(As a result of that is an excessive amount of energy for anybody to personal/wield alone).
Their answer?
Take advantage of superior AI programs on the planet accessible to anybody, wherever by way of decentralized networks, in order that these programs aren’t owned by a single tech firm.
They purpose to comprehend that objective by first promoting entry to AI coaching knowledge by way of the ICP blockchain, so that each one superior/privately owned AI fashions will depend on a spread of information, from a spread of suppliers, scattered across the globe…
In idea, by fragmenting the possession of the information that powers these fashions throughout a number of entities and making all of it publicly accessible, AGI monopolies ought to be a lot tougher to kind.
We now have to be trustworthy although:
Whereas this all sounds nice on paper…we do not know whether or not or not it’s going to work in observe.
