Open AGI Summit to Explore Decentralized AI Solutions in Bangkok

The Open AGI Summit, an innovative forum that examines how artificial general intelligence (AGI) and decentralized technologies can intersect ethically, is set for November 13, 2024, in Bangkok. With backing from major players like Sentient, Polygon Labs, SCB 10X/SCBX, and Google Cloud, this summit aligns with DevCon, a prominent blockchain developer conference, offering participants an opportunity to explore both blockchain and AGI topics.

Open AGIs Decentralization as a Solution for Safe AI

AGI has accelerated issues of power control and social impact. The Open AGI Summit will look at the decentralized blockchain governance structures which are more secure and less manipulative to AI growth. Therefore, it aims to promote more collaboration in developing the AI best practices that can help advance the value of AGI in the collective interest.

The summit features an influential lineup of speakers from the fields of AI, blockchain, and web3. Confirmed participants include Pramod Viswanath of Sentient, Sandeep Nailwal of Polygon, Sreeram Kannan of Eigenlayer, Tarun Chitra of Robot Ventures, Illia Polosukhin of Near, and Juan Benet of IPFS.

Nailwal, a core contributor to Sentient, underscored the necessity for an open, equitable AGI, highlighting blockchains potential to democratize AI. He emphasized the choice between a closed AI system dominated by a few entities and an open ecosystem guided by collective principles.

Diversity For the Future of AI and Blockchain Synergy

Some of the topics under discussion at the event are the state and future of the development of artificial intelligence safety, decentralized autonomous organizations, and regulation of artificial intelligence. Topics will include the integration of blockchain with AI and how blockchain can contribute to building AGI in a decentralized, open manner. It will also bring into focus new applications at the intersection of AI and blockchain to show how the two fields can work in fusion.

The Open AGI Summit aims to minimize the gaps between theoretical and empirical approaches, professionals and enthusiasts, and mainstream and DAO-centered AI development. It focuses on bringing together people with different backgrounds in order to collaborate in the creation of a responsible AGI.
