The Path to Robust deAGI | Ben Goertzel SCaLE 23x

The Path to Robust deAGI asks what it would take to build artificial general intelligence that is both powerful and structurally aligned with human flourishing—not just steered by after‑the‑fact safety patches. Ben Goertzel, CEO of SingularityNET and a founding member of the Artificial Superintelligence (ASI) Alliance, will outline how a decentralized, token‑coordinated ecosystem—combining ASI: Chain, Hyperon AGI, and community‑owned GPU clouds—can prevent AGI from being captured by any single corporation or state.

Goertzel will contrast centralized AGI roadmaps with a deAGI approach that bakes openness, diversity of values, and economic inclusion into the architecture itself, drawing on ideas like pluralistic training data, interoperable agent networks, and on‑chain governance of key system upgrades. He will also discuss technical milestones toward “robust” deAGI—modular cognitive architectures, decentralized marketplaces for AI services, and verification mechanisms that let communities audit and constrain AGI behavior—framing them as concrete steps toward an AGI that advances joy, growth, and choice for all rather than amplifying existing power imbalances.

Overview of Kwaai.
Kwaai is a registered 501©3 non-profit organization and open source AI research and development lab. Its mission is to democratize artificial intelligence by building open source Personal AI systems that prioritize user privacy, data ownership, and transparency. Kwaai operates as a volunteer-based initiative and invites technologists, researchers, policy experts, and community members to join its efforts.

What is Personal AI?
Kwaai’s vision of Personal AI is an assistant that users own and control. This AI:

Is trained on the user’s own data and experiences.

Runs locally on personal devices or on a peer to peer fabric, without requiring a SaaS subscription.
