SingularityNET:Buildinga“GlobalBrain”forHumanity
Foundedin2017,SingularityNETwasbornoutofashared concernaboutthefutureofAI.
“SingularityNETwasfoundedbymyold-timefriend,Fatherof AGI,Dr.BenGoertzel,”Ulieruexplains,“whowasdrivenbya strongdesiretoensurethatAIdevelopsasanopen, decentralizedforcethatbenefitsallofhumanityratherthan beingmonopolized,usedandcontrolledbyafewcorporations andgovernments.”
Apioneerinthefieldofmulti-agentsystems,Dr. Ulieruhasalsochairedseveralepicconferences, initiatedandledbyher.Heracademicimpactis furtherunderscoredbyover100peer-reviewed publications.
Now,astheChiefAIAlchemistatSingularityNET, sheisakeyvoiceinavitalmovementtomakeAI decentralized,ethicallygrounded,andfocusedon humanneeds.
FromCreativeSparkstoTechnologicalVision
Dr.Ulieru’sjourneybeganwithanaturalcuriosityand adrivetocreate. “Creativity drove me,” shesays, lookingbackatherschoolandcareerbeginnings. “I always wanted to see things differently, to find less obvious perspectives.” Thiscreativespiritfirstfound expressioninpoetryandmusic.Shewrotepoemsasa childandstartedcomposingmusicatnine,after receivingapiano.Later,inhighschool,mathematics capturedherimagination.This “mathematics bug,” as shefondlycallsit,ultimatelysteeredhertowards roboticsandcomputerscienceinuniversity. Thisshifttotechnologywasnotjustabouttechnical skills.Itwasaboutusingsystemsandsolutionsto exploreAI’spotential.Drivenbyadesirefordeep knowledge,shepursuedaPhDandfurtherstudies, specializinginAIandrobotics.
Yet,amidstthecomplexequationsandcutting-edge research,her“NorthStar”remainedconstant. “My passion for designing distributed systems that become ultimately technologies for empowerment which can enable ‘we the people’to co-create collective thriving communities, was always my North Star,” saysDr Ulieru.
Thisguidingprinciplewouldultimatelyshapeher mostambitiousendeavor–SingularityNET.
Theiranswerwasblockchaintechnology Theysawblockchain asthewaytodemocratizeAI,creatingaplatformforsharing, trading,andimprovingAIservicesgloballythrough collaboration.SingularityNET’sgoalisambitiousyetclear:to developanopen,decentralizedArtificialGeneralIntelligence (AGI)thatrespectshumanvalues.ThisisnotAIdevelopedin secrecy.Itisintendedasaglobal,collaborativespacewhere:
●AIdevelopersandbusinessesworktogetheropenly, improvingAI’sabilities.
●AIservicesareshared,worktogethersmoothly,andadapton theirown,creatingaflexiblesystem.
●Userscontroltheirowndata,preventingmisusebycentral organizations.
●AI’soperationistransparent,usingblockchaintoensure fairnessandpreventabuse.
Inessence,SingularityNETisbuildingtheinfrastructurefora decentralizedAGI–aself-improvingnetworkthatlearns, grows,andcollaboratesindependently This“globalbrain”is intendedtoservehumanityasawhole.Thisprojectisnotjust abouttechnology;itisaboutbuildingethicsintoAI’score development.
TheAlchemistofAI:TransformingPotentialintoReality
Dr.Ulieru’stitle,“ChiefAIAlchemist,”reflectshertalentfor combiningdifferentelementstocreatevaluableoutcomes.She describesher“alchemy”asher“Superpower.”Itisabout “bringingtherightskillstogethertocreateresultsthataremuch greaterthanjustaddinguptheparts.” Somecallheran “Exponentiator,”highlightingherknackforamplifyingimpact throughstrategicconnections.
Herapproachiscomprehensive,integratingideas“from networkscience,cybersecurity,andAImodelingtobuildAI systemsthatareadaptable,reliable,andaccessibletoeveryone, notjustlargetechcompaniesorgovernments.”
Dr.Ulieru’salchemyalsoinvolves“amalgamatingvarious technologiesintopowerfulsolutionsunthinkablebefore.” Sheenvisions“bindingAI,blockchain,IoTwiththe‘glue’ ofcomplexadaptivesystemstodeployconsciouscities thatself-regulateconsumptionwhilemonitoringvitalsigns tokeeptheircitizenshealthyandfreefrompollutantsor poisonousfoods.”
Furthermore,Dr.Ulieruseestokenizationasacriticaltool fordemocratizingtheAIlandscape.Itinvolves “cryptoeconomicsthatfreepeoplefromplatformcontrolledeconomiesbyembarkingthemontopeer-topeer,tokenizedecosystemswhereusersshareinthevalue theycreate.”
InthecontextofAI,thismeans“shiftingfromplatformownedAImodelstocommunity-driven,decentralizedAI, ensuringequitablevaluedistribution.”
Ultimately,forDr.Ulieru,“myworkaimstocreatevalue forpeoplebymakingAGIdecentralized,ethical,and collaborative,forthegoodofall.”
TowardsSuperIntelligence:ACooperativePath
SingularityNETisfocusedonthelongterm,aimingto shapeArtificialGeneralIntelligence(AGI)anditsfuture evolutionintoArtificialSuperintelligence(ASI).The criticalquestion,accordingtoDr.Ulieru,isnotwhether ASIwillemerge,butrather,“WillASIhelphumanity,or controlit?”
AtSingularityNET,theyarefocusedonbuildingthevery baseforbothAGIandASI.
Today’sAIislimitedtospecifictasks.AGIwillbe different:“aself-improving,flexibleintelligence”thatcan:
●Learnacrossmanydifferentfields,notjustone.
●Understandcontext,reason,andplanlikehumansdo.
●Organizeitselfintonetworksofintelligence,insteadof beingisolatedsystems.
SingularityNET’sroleisvitalinthisdevelopment.They areworkingto“buildadistributedAInetworkthatcan growtowardsAGIwhilestayingopenandresponsible.”
Crucially,theyaimtoensure“AGI’svaluesaredeveloped throughopen,sharedgovernance,notdictatedbyaselect few.”Theyarecreating“AIsystemsthatadaptandgrow naturally,insteadofbeingrigid,top-downstructures.”
“
Dr.Ulierustressescollaboration:“Thefutureofintelligence mustbecollaborativeandself-organizing,notcontrolledby acentralauthority.Ifwesucceed,AGIandASIwillbea greatbenefit,notathreattohumanity.”
MergingTechnologies:AI,Blockchain,andIoTfor Empowerment
Dr.Ulieruseesthefutureintheconvergenceof technologies.“AI,blockchain,andIoTcomingtogether,” shestates,“iscreatinganeraof‘Technologiesfor Empowerment,’movingusfromoldhierarchiesto connected,intelligentnetworks.”Shebelievesthat combiningthesetechnologiesisessentialforasustainable, smartfuture.Theyarenotseparateareas,but“building blocksforaself-organizing,decentralizeddigitalworld.”In thisworld:
●AIprovidessmartnessandautomation,makingsystems adaptableandresponsive.
●Blockchainprovidesopenness,trust,and decentralization,preventingmonopolies.
●RoboticsandIoTconnectintelligencetothephysical world,creatinghuman-machinepartnerships. However,Dr.Ulierualsopointsoutpotentialrisks.Without ethicalconsiderations,thesepowerfultools“couldworsen inequalitiesandcreatesystemsthatarebothcontrollingand unfair.”Sheemphasizestheurgentneedto“rethinkhowwe governdigitalsystems,”warningagainstafuturedominated byafewpowerfulcompaniescontrollingaccesstoessential resourcesandpower
Shecontraststwomodels:a“CentralizedModel”where largeplatformscontroldataandinfrastructure,anda My vision is a self-organizing digital economy, where decentralized AI runs autonomous industries, blockchain enforces trust without intermediaries, and robotics seamlessly integrates with human creativity augmenting rather than replacing us
“DecentralizedModel”whereuserscontroltheirdataand identity,andplatformsservetheirneeds.Shefirmly advocatesforthelatter,pushingfora“trulydecentralized, democraticdigitaleconomy.”
Decentralization:ReshapingIndustries,GivingPowerto People
ForDr.Ulieru,decentralizationisacoreprinciplewiththe powertotransformindustriesandempowerindividuals.She explains,“Decentralizationallowsforflexible manufacturingandsupplychainsandincreasesopportunity bymakingiteasierforanyonetoparticipate,sothebest ideascanalwayssucceed.”Hervisionisofa“selforganizingdigitaleconomywhereAImanagesindustries autonomously,blockchainensurestrust,androboticsworks withhumancreativity.”
Thesecombinedtechnologiescanunlockremarkable possibilities.Theycanleadto“self-organizingsystems, reducingwasteandempoweringpeoplewithcontrolover theiridentitiesandcontributions,enablingbetter governance,smartertransportation,automatedlogistics,and simplerpayments–freeingpeoplefromroutinetasksand redtape.”
Decentralization,inDr.Ulieru’sview,iskeytoamore efficient,fair,andhuman-focusedfuture.Thisperspectiveis deeplyinformedbyherpioneeringworkonorganic governancesystemsandtheirapplicationincriticalrealworldscenarios.
Notably,herresearchlaidthegroundworkfordecentralizing theIncidentCommandSystematFEMAandthe DepartmentofDefensethroughtheSelf-Organizing Security(SOSNetwork)initiative.
SharingKnowledge:ACommitmenttoEducation
Beyondhertechnicalexpertiseandleadership,Dr.Ulieruis deeplycommittedto“sharingknowledgeanddiscovery.”As anawardedacademicandAIProfessor,Overtheyears,she hasworkedwithmany“talentedcolleaguesandstudents,” resultinginover200publicationsand300keynotes.
Manyofherco-authorswereoncestudentsinspiredbyher teaching,showingherabilitytosparkcuriosityand encourageteamwork.Whetherthroughresearchpapersor publictalks,hercentralmotivationremains:“apassionfor discovery,forcreatingnewknowledge,andformakingthat knowledgeaccessibletotheworld.”

EthicsFirst:GuidingAI’sDevelopmentResponsibly
AsAIbecomesmoreindependent,ethicalconsiderations takecenterstage.Dr.Ulierucallsforashiftinhowwe thinkaboutAIethics,movingbeyondsimplerules. Insteadofjust“Controlling”AI,sheadvocatesfor “GuidingSuperintelligence.”Sheusesaninsightful comparison:“ThinkofAIasourchildren,whowehope willsurpassus.Weguidethemwithvalues,notjust restrictions.”
Shearguesthat“asAIbecomesmoreautonomous,our ethicalapproachmustmovefromstrictrulesto responsibleguidance–liketeachingchildrentoexceed ourabilitieswhileupholdingimportantvalues.”Insteadof rigidlimitsthatwon’tworkforsuper-intelligentsystems, wemust“buildethicalprinciplesintoAI’sdevelopment, ensuringitgrowswithwisdomandrespectforhumanity.” Dr.Ulieruproposesa“sharedgovernancemodel”forAI thatis:Decentralized,Inclusive,andTransparent.
Theultimategoalisnotjust“ethicalAI,”but“WiseAI”–anintelligence“thathelpshumanitymakebetterchoices, resolveconflicts,preventwars,andbuildaflourishing future.”Sheencouragesashift“from‘AISafety’to‘AI Opportunity,’”arguingagainstregulationsthatmight “limitAI’shugepotentialtoimproveourlivesandbuilda brighterfuture.”WemustguideAI’sadvancement,she urges,notbeafraidofit.
ALastingImpact:ShapingtheNextEraofIntelligence
Dr.Ulieru’sasksustoimagine“afuturewhere intelligenceisnotlimitedtohumanmindsormachines, butbecomesaplanet-wideforce–alivingnetworkof knowledgeandunderstanding.”Inthisfuture:
