AI Shouldn’t Judge Itself: Why Human Independence Is Essential for AI Governance 🤖⚖️
I claim that superintelligence alignment is likely to be reached. This is a popular explanation of my scientific article about AI alignment. Artificial intelligence is becoming powerful enough to write […]
What Problems Does Decentralized Science Solve?
Decentralized science (DeSci) addresses structural inefficiencies and incentive distortions in the traditional research ecosystem. By leveraging blockchain infrastructure, DAOs, and tokenized funding models, DeSci seeks to realign incentives toward openness, […]
Can AI Help Fund Scientific Research?
Artificial intelligence is typically discussed as a tool for discovery—accelerating drug design, automating proofs, optimizing simulations. Far less examined is a parallel question: can AI also help finance scientific research? […]
Can Decentralized Science Replace Universities?
Short answer: Not in the near term. But it can partially displace, pressure, and structurally transform them. ⚙️ Decentralized Science (DeSci) — built on blockchains, DAOs, and open collaboration — […]
