Earlier today, Emad Mostaque resigned from his role as CEO of Stability AI and from his position on the Board of Directors of the company to pursue decentralized AI. The Board of Directors has appointed Shan Shan Wong, our Chief Operating Officer, and Christian Laforte, our Chief Technology Officer
I have watched Emad talk a number of times now and feel he really gets where it is all going in a way only a handful of other seems too. I have personally been wondering about when we would see a decentralized AI as the centralized ones certainly come with a lot of corporate baggage.
Same here. I really liked his conc3pt of these being digital public goods and the reality that open source/models make finetuning on private data possible for many when it otherwise wouldn’t be the case.
Honestly seeing him double down on decentralized AI gives me hope too. People like the hivemind and pedals.Dev folks have been doing incredible stuff in that space but there has little in terms of adoption despite the fact it addressed a major hurdel in overall adoption (needing massive GPUs to run models).
