This audio is presented by Hacker Noon, where anyone can learn anything about any technology. Autonomies Network. Ex-Jumio executive appointed CEO for new DEAI vision ahead of mainnet launch by Chainwire. Palo Alto, California, June 14, 2024. Chainwire, asterisk asterisk, Autonomies, formerly Subspace, is now an identity-based decentralized AI, DEAI, stack for human plus AI, H plus I, collaboration. Introducing Autonomies, a decentralized AI, DEAI, verticalized stack encompassing distributed storage, distributed compute, and a decentralized application, DAP, suite. The first primitive being built in the Auto suite is our decentralized identity protocol Autonomies ID, Auto ID. Autonomous's DEAI ecosystem stack IS designed to provide all

the necessary components to build and deploy AI PowerEd apps, super DAPPs, and agents, and includes distributed storage, ensuring data integrity and availability, crucial for storing vast amounts of AI-related data. Distributed compute, providing scalable and secure computational resources for AI training and inference. DAP, agent layer, deploying and facilitating the development of AID APPs and agents, integrated with AutoID to enable secure and verifiable interactions. This verticalized stack not only enhances the capabilities of AI applications, but also ensures that they operate within a secure and decentralized framework. The combination of distributed storage and compute and a robust identity protocol positions Autonomies as a leader in the convergence of Web3 and AI.

Only a scalable, decentralized network capable of handling billions of AI-augmented users can power the transition to H plus I. These fundamentals leave the Autonomies, formerly Subspace, network uniquely positioned to support the necessary primitives, including decentralized identity-based transactions, at not only internet scale, but Internet of Agents, IOA, scale. Greater than, in the Web3-enabled decentralized future, humans will be empowered by AI greater than while retaining radical autonomy over their destinies. Unlike centralized AI, greater than which is often biased and profit-driven, a decentralized platform embraces the greater-than-rich tapestry

of humanity, ensuring AI serves as an ally that reflects our greater-than-diversity and enriches our lives. Only through decentralization can we achieve greater-than-a-future where AI truly amplifies human potential without compromising our greater-than-values. We are shamelessly humanity maximalists. Libesh Patel, Autonomy's Greater-Than- Than CEO. AUTONOMYS Network The cornerstone of Autonomies vision for secure, sovereign H-plus AI collaboration is the Autonomies Network, a deployment of the subspace protocol. Its large community of farmers secures the blockchain, underpinned by innovative proof of archival storage, POAs, consensus, by contributing storage,

thereby earning rewards through active participation. The growing node operator network similarly provides compute power, execution, VR proof-of-stake, POS, consensus mechanism, and earns rewards. The SATI-coupled execution environments are called domains. Read more about the protocol in the Autonomies Academy. This powerful combination of consensus via POAS and compute via POS provides the ideal foundation for building stable, scalable products in the full Web3X AI, AI 3.0, stack, while simultaneously offering users control over their digital lives. Autonomies is helping pioneer an alternative path of autonomy to the state dependency introduced by Universal Basic Income, UBI, suggested as a solution to the potential jobs apocalypse brought about by the age of AI. Our pathway, meanwhile, leads to the age of autonomy.

AUTONOMYSID's AI stack is incomplete without the ability for humans to provide rule-based access controls. These are crucial to ensure AI agents are developed and operate within safe, ethical boundaries. Thus, the need for secure, verifiable identities is paramount. Autonomy's ID, Auto-ID, is designed to meet this need by providing a robust, privacy-preserving decentralized identity protocol allowing both humans and I-agents to establish and verify their identities seamlessly. It represents a foundational

pillar of our mission to help usher in the age of autonomy. AutoID enables you to prove your humanity and create a unique identity on-chain without subjecting yourself to invasive biometric scans. This comprehensive proof of personhood can then be used across various DAPPs and services. The integration of AutoID within the autonomy decentralized AI stack goes beyond human identities, however. By equipping AI agents with identities derived from human-controlled Auto-IDS, Autonomy can establish a system of trust and accountability. This ensures that AI agents adhere to the guardrails defined by their human counterparts, fostering a secure and ethical AI environment. Soon, users will be able to use their Auto-ID to develop and efficiently collaborate

with AI agents that operate and perform complex transactions within a rule-based framework. Users can also be able to control your agent's permissions and authenticate AI-generated content, bringing traceability to generative content, and allowing users to maintain authority over their digital footprint, as well as that of their agents. A brief retrospective in 2021, co-founders Jeremiah Wagstaff and Nazar Makrinsky released the Farmer's Dilemma white paper after more than three years of R&D, funded in tire lobby grants from the U.S. National Science Foundation and the Web3 Foundation. They conceived of a more equitable, fourth-generation Layer 1 blockchain, in line with Satoshi Nakamoto's original vision. This marked the birth of the Subspace network. Based on a novel consensus

protocol allowing anyone to participate using their off-the-shelf PC, the network would scale as the number of users grew. This made Subspace the first truly scalable permanent decentralized storage solution for Web3. The same year, the project raised $4.5 million in seed funding, and in 2022, $33 million in a strategic financing round led by Pantera Capital, Coinbase Ventures, Crypto.com, Hypersphere Ventures and Stratus Technologies. Autonomy's vision of enabling Web3 to operate at internet scale has continued to evolve alongside the needs of the industry. In the years following, Subspace was unique in offering modular compute and execution, and developed into the scalable Layer 0 blockchain for both storage and compute. Looking to the future at Autonomy's, the aim is to take that a step further.

The new roadmap for EaseS the Autonomyies Network also serving as the future foundation layer for open, secure and accountable Web3x AI integration. The company believes it has the tech, personnel and experience to achieve that goal. Over the last year, the project has taken a deep dive into AI under the inspiring leadership of our former CEO Jeremiah Wagstaff. While he and co-founder Nazar are stepping back from day-to-day leadership, they will continue to steer R&D through our most difficult problems, including furthers scaling via data sharding and collective alignment of agentic AI. The team is immensely grateful for the insightful feedback we received from our diverse ecosystem of stakeholders during this time. It has been instrumental in or decision-making.

Autonomy's new CEO LaBesh Patel, an expert in identity and AI, is stewarding Autonomies towards this AI 3.0 mission and is already pushing the boundaries of what's possible. In the coming days and weeks, the community can expect Subspace's domains, social handles and more to rebrand to Autonomies. Labhesh will soon be hosting a Twitter space to discuss these changes with the community. We're incredibly excited for you to meet him. Labhesh has over a decade of experience spanning the AI, Web3, and Identity and Access Management, IAM, industries, and brings a wealth of expertise to the project. In addition to developing cutting-edge technologies

in digital ID, KYC and identity verification, Labesh has dedicated years to the building and productizing of large-scale AI models. He is leveraging this experience to architect the creation of AutoID, which will utilize fraud-resistant, non-invasive protocols to ensure secure proof of personhood, POP, atop the Autonomy's AI 3.0 stack. His professional career is marked by a commitment to privacy, security and the seamless integration of AI and blockchain technology.
