AI’s future depends on transparency and shared knowledge, ensuring transformative technologies remain accessible to all, regardless of background or credentials.

AI can drive progress, but only if open, ethical, and accessible—ensuring benefits are widely shared, not concentrated among a few.

‍

We are amid a rapid Industrial Revolution—collaboration is key to shaping AI’s future while protecting democracy, knowledge work, and culture.

‍

To unlock AI’s full potential, we must build digital commons, open models, and world-class open-science ecosystems through collective effort.

AI accelerates communication and innovation, but we must ensure its growth prioritizes collective good over short-term profit and shareholder value.

My hope is that Current AI helps break barriers and invest strategically in technology to bring AI’s promise to the forefront.

We are enthusiastic to support Current AI, an initiative prioritizing open-source principles to ensure AI remains decentralized, democratic, and accessible to all.

Current AI can help shape AI’s potential for global participation, enabling social shaping and entrepreneurship to drive massive benefits for everyone.
