About
Pitch
The GUT-AI Initiative is a totally decentralized initiative which aims to eliminate the multiple single points of failure when using AI for real-life applications in the real world in order to achieve the ultimate purpose of both ‘narrow AI’ and ‘strong AI’, which is to actually "open" the "black box" of an ML system in order to eventually unlock the mysteries of nature and the universe (from Brain Consciousness and Abiogenesis to Quantum Gravity and Genesis Cosmology ). For instance, does evolution or the universe have a conscious or intelligent “geist” (spirit), as Max Planck once claimed?
Vision
We believe that there should be no organization or person in our world who wants to use AI, but not be able to do so. We also believe in a world where AI hand-in-hand with human interaction are in an ever-improving situation.
Mission
We are on a mission to create the most user-friendly Open-Data, Open-Source, Decentralized ecosystem for AI using cutting-edge technology either of the 21st century or that we might invent by ourselves.

The Problem
A picture is worth a thousand words. You can see the picture below and draw your own conclusions.
- Can AI understand humour? No.
- Should AI understand humour? Yes.
- How do we get there?

DAO Foundation
The GUT-AI Foundation has a supportive role, while acting as a catalyst in order to accelerate the GUT-AI Initiative, but without interfering with the decentralized nature of the whole initiative. In other words, the GUT-AI Foundation is merely a pure subset of the initiative. The Foundation is currently in the process of becoming a Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO).

Current problems and challenges
Currently, there are countless centralized “solutions” in the cyberspace, but with the following problems and challenges:
- no interoperability
- limited communication
- inefficient processes
- multiple single points of failure
- bureaucratic hegemony
- censorship
- no privacy
- no transparency
- no customization
- security vulnerabilities
