GRID is Sentient’s advantage in the race to outpace centralized AI. The Global Research and Intelligence Directory (GRID), is an interconnected ecosystem designed to power the world’s largest open-source intelligence network. Behind the scenes, GRID is a network of specialized agents, data sources, models, tools and compute built by @SentientAGI elite partners and developers. With 110+ partners, 17+ agents, and 50+ data sources, GRID is built to deliver collaborative AGI and not a single model like ChatGPT and other centralized AI Powered by the $SENT economy, GRID is set to build the future of decentralized AGI and developers are invited to fork and build on it. You can access the GRID through Sentient Chat which is presently the gateway to the GRID unified world of intelligence. Here are some GRID partners and the role they play 👇🏻 ▪️Model partners: Kegen, Bagel, CrunchDAO, Eigenlayer → Provide and integrate open-source AI models into the GRID for tasks like reasoning, generation, and inference. ▪️Agent Consortium partners: Messari, Kaito, Talus, Mira, Theoriq and others → Provide intelligent and specialized AI agents. For example, Theoriq provides modular AI agents that handle tasks like reasoning or analytics and routing queries for optimal results. ▪️Data Consortium partners: Kaito, OG Labs, Mizu, Irys and others → Offer high-quality data and ensure verifiable, privacy-preserving data labeling. These 50+ sources ensure GRID’s answers are rich and reliable while making this robust data available to users on a single platform - Sentient Chat. ▪️Verifiable AI Consortium partners: Nillion, Lagrange, P12 and others → focused on providing secure, tamper-proof compute infrastructure for running AI models and agents within the GRID network. They emphasize "loyalty" in open AGI by leveraging technologies like Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs), zero-knowledge proofs (ZK), and fully homomorphic encryption (FHE) to verify executions, prevent alterations, and ensure scalable, trustworthy inference ▪️Blockchain Partners: Arbitrum, Polygon, Celo → Enable a Decentralized AGI Economy by providing the infrastructure for The GRID’s four-layer protocol (Storage, Distribution, Access, Incentive). ▪️ Infra Partners: Lit Protocol, Open Gradient → Power AGI with Scalable Compute and provide core computational infrastructure like GPUs, Cloud services or decentralized compute networks to train and run AGI models. With this elite group of partners powering the GRID, Sentient is on its way to build an ecosystem that can drive mass adoption of decentralized AGI.
