How can decentralized AI win? It will never be as efficient as the centralized alternatives (because of communication overhead). One possibility is by aggregating otherwise underutilized hardware. I am more intrigued though by the possibility to incentivize global human-machine collaboration on content, models, queries, etc. This has the potential for huge efficiency gains over centralized competing entities which duplicate all efforts.

I am interested in projects that liberate the knowledge contained in the big models, which have been trained on our collective output, into formats that are accessible and useful for everyone (and on which humans and machines can collaborate)

Political discourse is still stuck in Industrial age thinking when what we really need is an entirely new narrative in light of AI progress and attention scarcity.
