Agreed. It’s no longer just about consuming web2 outputs on web3 plumbing.
We’ll have to go up the full stack -
The data, algorithms, the compute.
How to make deployment of current and future open source models as useful and good closed labs? It’s possible. Less convenient but possible
Answer lies in localization of data inference.
The good thing is, there are already projects on chain pushing these limits. Just need more collaboration instead of liquidity wars ⛽️
Decentralized, permissionless, uncensored AI running on crypto plumbing is probably the most important battle arena of the next five years.
Actions like today’s are eye openers for many, but we knew. We knew governaments, technocrats, big companies where hoarding compute, talent, resources. A more and more centralized and dystopian future where social divide is even more prominent. Where access to frontier models is stonewalled.
It gives crypto once again a mission. A clear flag to carry.
The 0 to 1 moment is happening this year. Things will only accelerate going forward.
