That\u2019s why we\u2019re excited to announce our membership in the <a href=\"https:\/\/dais.global\/\" target=\"_blank\">Decentralized AI Society (DAIS)<\/a>, an alliance of leading Web3 and artificial intelligence organizations committed to fostering the ethical development and adoption of decentralized AI (DeAI).<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Joining DAIS is a natural extension of Hedera\u2019s mission to bridge the gap between enterprises and decentralized technologies. Over the past eight years, Hedera has supported the development of robust enterprise-grade solutions powered by distributed ledger technology (DLT), and we\u2019re proud to bring this expertise to DAIS. Together with the new DAIS members, we aim to ensure that the AI space evolves in a way that prioritizes transparency, fairness, and accessibility.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Collaborating for a Decentralized AI Future<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">DAIS, launched in September 2024, unites organizations dedicated to preventing the concentration of power that has historically defined the Web2 economy. Its mission is to champion a decentralized approach to AI development, governance, and ownership, ensuring this technology benefits everyone rather than just a select few.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">As DAIS grows, the addition of Hedera, <a href=\"https:\/\/near.foundation\/\" target=\"_blank\">NEAR Foundation<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/scrt.network\/\" target=\"_blank\">Secret Network<\/a> to the Society represents a significant milestone in its journey. Each organization brings unique strengths to the table: Hedera offers a trusted bridge to enterprise adoption of decentralized technologies, NEAR draws on its pioneering AI capabilities, and Secret advances critical confidential computing infrastructure for AI applications.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Michael Casey, Chair of DAIS, highlighted the importance of these new members: \u201cThe accelerating membership growth at DAIS is validation of decentralized AI\u2019s potential as a transformative technology movement and that it represents a core use case for the data integrity and distributed ownership qualities enabled by blockchain technology. These new members are all providing critical, complementary components of the DeAI stack.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Hedera\u2019s Commitment to Responsible AI<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Hedera\u2019s involvement with DAIS will focus on fostering collaboration among stakeholders to build industry-wide frameworks that prioritize ethical AI development and practical applications. The future of AI must emphasize user-centric design, decentralized ownership, and transparent governance, and by supporting such initiatives, we aim to unlock AI\u2019s potential without compromising ethics or security.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Emphasizing our shared vision with DAIS, Hedera\u2019s Chief Operating Officer, Shyam Nagarajan said: \u201cOver the last 8 years, Hedera has built deep expertise and a strong network of enterprise partners in the DLT space. With Hedera\u2019s technology already supporting a number of innovative AI projects, this collaboration with DAIS is a key step in ensuring AI is developed both ethically and responsibly. We\u2019re excited to share our insights and apply our enterprise experience to help develop industry-wide standards, policies, and principles for decentralized AI.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">We are particularly excited about the opportunity to shape global standards that promote interoperability, transparency, and privacy in the evolving DeAI landscape.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>DAIS Decentralized AI Salon at Davos<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">DAIS will host a \u201cDecentralized AI Salon\u201d on January 21 during the World Economic Forum in Davos. Hedera is proud to support this event, which will explore the opportunities and challenges of decentralized AI while promoting collaboration and shared innovation. This event will feature a fireside chat with Dr. Leemon Baird, Co-Founder of Hedera and Hashgraph, as well as a panel discussion on data integrity featuring Hedera\u2019s COO Shyam Nagarajan alongside ProveAI\u2019s CEO Mrinal Manohar. <\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Looking Ahead<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">As we partner with DAIS to address the challenges and opportunities of decentralized AI, Hedera remains steadfast in our commitment to advancing technology that benefits all. Collaborating with like-minded organizations who share our vision strengthens our ability to drive meaningful progress in the AI landscape and beyond.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">We are excited to embark on this journey alongside DAIS and other forward-thinking leaders in the decentralized AI ecosystem. Together, we can shape the next era of technology to be not only innovative but also inclusive and equitable.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/hedera.com\/use-cases\/data-integrity\" target=\"_blank\">Learn more<\/a> about Hedera\u2019s commitment to ensuring data integrity and responsible AI development. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p dir=\"ltr\">At Hedera, we believe in leveraging decentralized technologies to create a more equitable, transparent, and sustainable digital future.
