The study, conducted by Harris on behalf of the crypto venture capital firm Digital Currency Group (DCG), surveyed 2,036 Americans aged 18 and over. Results released on May 29 revealed that 56% of participants favored decentralized AI, while 77% stated that this technology is “more beneficial” for society.

Julie Stitzel, Vice President of Policy at DCG, said, “Two-thirds of Americans believe the transformative power of AI would benefit more people if it wasn’t concentrated in the hands of a few major players.”

Trust Issues with Centralization

67% of respondents said centralized AI systems are more likely to be biased, while 63% believe these systems tend to serve large tech corporations more than the average user, and are more prone to misuse of user data.

Decentralized AI on the Rise

For years, experts and industry figures opposing the dominance of big tech in AI have been highlighting the significance of decentralized systems.

Chris Miglino, co-founder and CEO of DNA Fund, stated that decentralized AI models hold even greater potential than Bitcoin.

Ben Goertzel, founder of SingularityNET, mentioned that he has supported the idea of decentralized AI since the 1990s. According to Goertzel, if an AI model reaching human-level intelligence is to truly benefit humanity, it must be built on a decentralized foundation.

On May 5, Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino announced that they are working on an AI platform that will support USDT and BTC payments in an integrated way.

Earlier this month, a new initiative called Thinkagents.ai introduced an open-source framework for creating on-chain AI agents capable of operating independently across decentralized networks. Over 70 crypto firms, including Yuga Labs and Magic Eden, have already adopted the protocol.
