Pakinomist — AI Mafia has announced the launch of a new blockchain-based AI activist agent that aims to promote ethical engagement in politics and activism using 0G’s blockchain technology. This move represents an effort to ensure AI innovation remains transparent and accountable in a decentralized era.
The initiative, called “AI Manifesto,” is a project within the 0G ecosystem that recently secured an additional $30 million in funding through token sales. AI Mafia’s approach is to offer an alternative to organizations like OpenAI, which advocate open and verifiable use of AI to prevent potential abuses in critical societal sectors such as medicine, military and governance.
AI Mafia’s agent is touted as the first verifiable activist AI, incorporating insights from diverse thought leaders across technology, cryptocurrency, AI, and political fields, including Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, and Andrew Yang, among others.
The agent is designed to report on important news, educate the public on regulatory issues, contribute ideas to the crypto and AI sectors, and encourage the formation of coalitions and social movements.
The societal implications of such activist AI agents are significant. Drawing parallels with bot influence in past political events, AI Mafia expects autonomous systems to have a concentrated influence on shaping narratives and enabling political engagement at scale.
The team behind AI Mafia envisions a network of SuperPac-like agents representing various interests, stressing the need for these systems to be verifiable and tamper-proof.
The AI Mafia’s manifesto outlines their commitment to an open source revolution, the deployment of activist agents and political mobilization through AI-powered networks.
