The CEO of @Gaianet_AI, whom I am an ambassador for, @shankuverymuchx says:

In an interview with CryptoDaily UK, Shashank Sripada, the co-founder and COO of Gaia, highlighted the centralization in the field of artificial intelligence and explained how Gaia aims to change this situation.

According to Sripada, current AI systems are largely controlled by large companies, creating a centralized structure. Gaia aims to provide an open-source and decentralized solution, enabling everyone to easily and affordably deploy their own AI agents.

AI agents are systems that include large language models (LLMs), necessary hardware, and computing power, and can perform tasks or make decisions on behalf of users. Gaia offers developers the tools and framework necessary to create such agents without the challenges of setting up and fine-tuning their own AI systems. This approach facilitates broader adoption and utilization of AI by a wider audience.

Sripada noted that Gaia is running pilot projects with major organizations such as NASA, Qualcomm, and TikTok, and has recently partnered with MoonPay. He also expressed that Gaia plans to create new opportunities for people to interact with decentralized agents by launching an agent marketplace.

According to Sripada, the number of AI agents will exceed the human population in the coming years, increasing interest in agent-supported applications. Gaia aims to democratize access to information by providing a system where people can securely monetize and verify their data on the blockchain.
