## Description

Decentralized AI, from Open Data to AGI: This panel tackled the future of AI infrastructure—from data provenance to synthetic training sets—and the tradeoffs between decentralization, scale, and control. What happens when compute, ownership, and intelligence distribution intersect? Expect strong takes on synthetic data, economic incentives, and whether decentralization is a pipe dream—or the only real path to AGI.

Speakers: Vincent Weisser (Prime Intellect), Anna Kazlauskas (OpenDataLabs / Vana), Ram (OpenLedger), Chi Zhang (Kite AI), and Madisen Taylor (Prime Intellect)

This session was part of the 12th edition of Funding the Commons, held March 15–16, 2025, at the Internet Archive in San Francisco.
