At the Global Blockchain Show, Janet Adams, Chief Operating Officer at SingularityNET, joins a live conversation on why decentralization is essential for the future of AI and AGI. Drawing on SingularityNET’s role as the original pioneer of decentralized AI and the work of its founder, Dr. Ben Goertzel, Adams explains the limits of today’s narrow AI systems and why centralized approaches risk concentrating intelligence, power, and value in the hands of a few. She makes the case that decentralized, blockchain-based AI is not just an alternative, but the only viable path to building artificial general intelligence that benefits humanity as a whole.
The discussion explores neuro-symbolic AI, AI agents, Web3 and the transition toward Web4, where autonomous agents operate at scale with their own settlement systems and governance. Adams outlines how decentralized infrastructure enables faster innovation, greater security, ethical diversity, and global participation—while positioning SingularityNET and the Artificial Superintelligence Alliance at the forefront of this shift. A wide-ranging and candid conversation on AGI, governance, ethics, and why the next technological era will be defined by collective intelligence rather than centralized control.

SingularityNET was founded by Dr. Ben Goertzel with the mission of creating a decentralized, democratic, inclusive, and beneficial Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). An AGI is not dependent on any central entity, is open to anyone, and is not restricted to the narrow goals of a single corporation or even a single country.
The SingularityNET team includes seasoned engineers, scientists, researchers, entrepreneurs, and marketers. Our core platform and AI teams are further complemented by specialized teams devoted to application areas such as finance, robotics, biomedical AI, media, arts, and entertainment.
