Open AGI Summit partners with Google Cloud at DevCon Bangkok

The Open AGI Summit, held in Bangkok this month alongside DevCon, will bring together global experts to examine how decentralized, blockchain-based models can create a safer, fairer, and ethically sound path for developing Artificial General Intelligence (AGI).

With the rise of powerful AI, societal concerns around centralized control are on the rise, and the summit seeks to address these through blockchain’s potential for open, transparent governance.

Influential voices address AI’s future and ethics

The summit will feature speakers from academia and tech, including Pramod Viswanath of Sentient, Sandeep Nailwal of Polygon, Sreeram Kannan of Eigenlayer, Tarun Chitra of Robot Ventures, Illia Polosukhin of Near, and Juan Benet of IPFS.

Their discussions will span AI safety, governance, and ethical questions, reflecting on the dual opportunities and challenges AGI presents.

“AI’s future is at a crossroads,” says Sandeep Nailwal, Core Contributor at Sentient.

“We can choose a closed, corporate-controlled path or a world where AI benefits are transparent and distributed.” Blockchain’s decentralization, he adds, offers hope for a more inclusive AGI framework.

An intersection of academic, industry, and community insights

The Open AGI Summit aims to foster collaboration across academic, industry, and decentralized AI communities. By promoting partnerships, the event strives to accelerate AGI progress while upholding ethical principles and societal well-being.

The gathering also aligns with DevCon to broaden discussions on how blockchain can bridge technical innovation with ethical responsibilities.
