Sentient
Total raised: $85M
San Francisco-based open-source AI platform Sentient has secured a whopping $85 million in seed funding to disrupt the centralized AI model development landscape. Led by Peter Thiel’s Founder’s Fund, this funding round aims to democratize AI innovation and pave the way for a more equitable future.
Sentient's mission is clear: to challenge the status quo of AI development by providing an open platform for Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) research. This theoretical field of AI aims to create software that can match human intelligence levels, unlocking a new era of AI assistants capable of human-like performance.
The core contributors behind Sentient, including Sandeep Nailwal from Polygon and Professor Pramod Viswanath from Princeton University, are dedicated to reshaping the AI industry. By leveraging blockchain technology, Sentient incentivizes collaboration and innovation, allowing contributors to monetize their creations and drive the evolution of "Open AGI."
The implications of Sentient's approach are profound. By breaking down the barriers of closed-source AI models, Sentient empowers a diverse community of developers to contribute and benefit from AI advancements. This shift towards open collaboration not only fosters innovation but also ensures that AI development aligns with the interests of humanity as a whole.
As Sentient enters the testnet phase and expands its team with top AI and blockchain talent, the future of AI development looks brighter than ever. With the support of industry leaders like Peter Thiel’s Founder’s Fund and a growing community of experts, Sentient is poised to revolutionize the way we think about AI.
In a world where AI has the power to transform every aspect of our lives, Sentient's commitment to decentralization and collaboration is a beacon of hope. By democratizing AI innovation, Sentient is paving the way for a more inclusive and equitable future where the benefits of AI are shared by all.
