Imagine if ChatGPT was owned by everyone, not just OpenAI. That's @SentientAGI in a nutshell. It's building an open, community-owned AGI network where communities govern. Here's an ELI5 overview 🧵 ➣ Decentralized AGI Infrastructure Today’s AI is concentrated inside a few closed labs (OpenAI, Google, Meta), limiting transparency and community ownership of models and data. Sentient’s thesis is that AGI will emerge from a network of specialized intelligences. That's how GRID appeared. GRID is a composable network that coordinates agents, models, data, tools, and compute. ➣ Open OS for Agents It's Sentient’s operating-system-like layer on top of the GRID that lets you discover, run, and compose AI agents (plus models, data, and tools). - Sentient Chat: A unified interface to the GRID that routes queries across agents/models and recently added “Spaces” for organizing workflows. - ROMA: An Apache-2.0-licensed framework for breaking down complex tasks into agentic steps - Open Deep Search: An open framework that separates a Reasoning Agent from a Search Tool. ODS reports ~75.3% on FRAMES and ~88.3% on SimpleQA, matching or surpassing some closed baselines (e.g., GPT-4o Search Preview, Perplexity Sonar) on those benchmarks. ➣ $SENT Token Utility $SENT is described as the protocol’s economic fuel, serving as the medium for staking, incentives, and governance within the GRID/OML stack. Utility: - Governance: Vote on upgrades, model/version decisions, and onchain policy....
