MIT Decentralized AI: Internet of AI Agents Summit
MIT Decentralized AI: Internet of AI Agents Summit
In today's AI landscape, data, computation, and governance are centralized. The Internet of AI Agents offers a promising alternative — leveraging intelligent, network-based approaches to improve collaboration, incentives, and innovation at the edges. It offers a promising alternative enabling collaboration between distrusted, disincentivized, and disinterested entities.
Join Vana, the MIT Media Lab and Imagination in Action in exploring how the decentralized Internet of AI Agents can contribute to healthcare, finance, supply chains, and climate science. Discover how secure data markets, multi-dimensional models, and verifiable AI can democratize AI, cultivating innovation and collaboration for a sustainable and intelligent future.
This event is open to students, startups, researchers and investors.
