Recorded Live at ETH Denver 2024, this conversation explores the intersection of crypto and AI, discussing the need for decentralized AI models and the challenges of achieving this. The participants highlight the importance of keeping AI open and driven by people, rather than organizations. They discuss the potential of blockchain and Web3 technology to enable new business models and address the limitations of centralized AI companies. The conversation also touches on the role of incentives and tokens in driving innovation in the crypto AI space. The discussion concludes with an examination of BitTensor and the potential for future advancements in crypto AI. The conversation explores various themes related to the intersection of crypto and AI. It discusses the value of outside judgment in rating AI systems, the concept of a hive mind, and exciting use cases in the crypto and AI space. The projects AGI Guild and Morpheus are highlighted, along with the decentralized data warehouse Space and Time. The potential of utilizing unused data in DeFi protocols and the decentralized chat GPT platform MyShell.ai are also discussed. Concerns about OpenAI's dominance, the collaboration between Web2 and Web3, and the concept of zero party data are explored. The conversation also touches on the potential of data DAOs and crowdsourcing, the idea of minimum viable centralization, and the inflection point of decentralized AI and compute. Tangible innovation in ZKML and decentralized data, the importance of edge compute, and the need for decentralized inference are further examined.
