In a brief dialogue, Speaker A announces that Sentient AGI—backed by Polygon and Founders Fund—is launching a decentralized AI research effort that is already surpassing closed‑source models on agent‑benchmark evaluations. Speaker B expands on the significance, arguing that AI development no longer needs to be confined to traditional hubs like Silicon Valley, London, DeepMind, or France. Instead, the research is truly decentralized, leveraging talent spread across geographies and embracing open‑source collaboration, which they view as a positive evolution for the field.

Chapters

Sentient AGI, which is backed by Polygon and Founders Fund, has launched, or is in the process of launching, decentralized AI research that is actually outperforming closed models on agent benchmarks.
Think about it, just think about it. I mean, essentially it's basically a decentralized research. I mean, historically we thought probably you can only build GPT4 or chatgpt and AI by just making people, just by just having people in Silicon Valley, or maybe in London, in DeepMind, or maybe in France. But think about like the research has been truly decentralized, and that's a good thing. And I think of decentralization not just as a talent density has been scattered across the geographies, but it's also about open source.
