As former Stability AI founder and chief executive Emad Mostaque puts it, “We’re not going to beat centralized AI with more centralized AI.” We’re thrilled to share that Ramesh Raskar, C10 Labs Co-founder and Associate Director of MIT Media Lab, was recently featured on NOVA | PBS's documentary, “Secrets in your Data”, hosted by Alok Patel. In the documentary, Ramesh points to the transformative potential of AI in transcribing "smashed data" to derive meaningful insights without compromising private information. This approach is a part of the shift toward #decentralizedAI, which processes data in a distributed and anonymized manner. By doing so, decentralized AI enables secure data markets for private and fair data exchanges and democratizes access to #AI #innovation. Current centralized AI models are controlled by a few dominant companies and face challenges such as restricted data access, inflexible models, and a lack of transparency—and decentralization is the solution.

Thanks to Vault Fund, Sarah Adams Anderson, Francisco Gomez  for selecting C10 Labs’s co-founder Patricia Geli among the top ten venture studios to pitch at the inaugural 2024 Global Takeoff Summit (https://lnkd.in/eJuQEXVu)! Venture studios are a relatively new class of assets, changing the investment landscape given their distinctive approach to innovation. Unlike traditional venture capital (VC) firms, venture studios not only fund but also co-create startups. This combination of the best of entrepreneurship and investment creates a unique model that potentially offers higher returns, lower risk, and increased liquidity. Patricia also participated as a panelist on "The Effects of GenAI on Company Building" alongside Kevin Crosby and Greg Gottesman, moderated by Jaideep Gandecha, discussing how to stay ahead in a rapidly evolving landscape of AI. At C10 Labs, GenAI spearheads our venture-building efforts, enabling us to create startups at the intersection of #AI and #healthcare, #lifesciences, #climatetech, #builtworld, and more. We’re excited to share more about our groundbreaking ventures and the impact they're making across these sectors as our second cohort launches on Thursday. Stay tuned! #2024GlobalTakeoffSummit #GenAI #C10Labs #venturestudios #venturecapital
