SingularityNET (AGIX) Releases Final Supervisory Council Progress Update

SingularityNET (AGIX) has released the final progress update from its Supervisory Council, according to a recent post by the organization. This update focuses on the development and publication of a Decentralization Blueprint, a crucial step in their mission to build decentralized Artificial General Intelligence (AGI).

Decentralization Blueprint Published

Since its inception in 2017, SingularityNET has aimed to create decentralized, beneficial AGI. The organization has collaborated closely with the Supervisory Council (SC) to explore various initiatives, including the grassroots Ambassador program and the Deep Funding grant program.

In the past year, efforts to develop the Decentralization Blueprint have accelerated. The blueprint aims to establish governance processes that ensure no centralized power can control SingularityNET’s AGI systems. The SC, elected on October 24, 2023, was tasked with delivering a preliminary framework for this decentralization initiative.

During their six-month term, the SC shifted its focus from governance process development to auditing key sites for decentralization, commenting on operational processes, and interfacing with the Ambassador Program and Deep Funding. The SC’s document offers a starting point for various decentralization experiments for SingularityNET to consider.

Challenges and Future Steps

As AI continues to evolve, the importance of decentralization grows. SingularityNET has expressed gratitude for the SC’s work, despite disagreements on several points. The organization will now take time to absorb the SC’s findings and prepare for the next stages in developing a meaningful decentralization process for future generations of AI, AGI, and Artificial Superintelligence (ASI).
