In a sweeping and cinematic transmission from a fictional near future, Shytoshi delivers a bold new manifesto: SHIB: The AI Paper V2.

More than speculative fiction, this document is a strategic framework for navigating the coming AI era with decentralized tools, community-first governance, and open-source infrastructure.

Structured as a message sent backward through time, the paper offers both a creative narrative and a serious proposal. The central theme is clear: artificial intelligence is not a distant future—it’s here, and the decentralized world must act accordingly.

Seven Categories of AI, One Coordinated Response

The paper outlines seven major branches of AI development:

- Centralized AI

- Decentralized AI

- Enterprise AI

- Auxiliary AI

- Ancillary AI

- Malicious AI

- Anti-AI Movements.

In each, the author identifies both risk and opportunity, from the dangers of unregulated large language models to the cultural momentum of human-built brands in a post-automation world.

The common thread? The Shib ecosystem is being positioned as a foundational infrastructure layer with Shibarium and the SHIB OS serving as the rails for decentralized, scalable AI development.

A Tokenized Operating System for the AI Age

Rather than relying solely on traditional web infrastructure, the paper envisions a tokenized architecture:

• SHIB will govern the community DAO

• LEASH will provide early access and exclusive testing—what Shy calls the “judicial branch.”

• BONE powers and governs Shibarium, the Layer 2 blockchain.

• TREAT becomes the gateway to AI: distributing grants, powering AI agents, and rewarding decentralized participation.

This isn’t merely a roadmap it’s a reinterpretation of the SHIB ecosystem as a post-GPT operating system for autonomous, creative, and ethical AI development.

Beyond Hype: Infrastructure, Identity, and Innovation

Where many blockchain projects chase ephemeral trends, The AI Paper V2 is grounded in infrastructure and long-term vision. It challenges developers to build not just AI models, but the scaffolding around them—identity systems, secure payments, rollups, and regulatory-safe workflows.

The AI Paper V2 is a rare thing in Web3: a work that is both imaginative and instructive, speculative and strategic. It tells a story of the future, yes—but more importantly, it provides the blueprints to build one.
