Not a single existential challenge facing humanity can be solved by one company, organization, or even an entire alliance. But I truly believe in the power of collective curiosity, creativity, and collaboration to create an unstoppable force capable of tackling the greatest challenges we face.
The Progress of Chinese Developers
This week, DeepSeek, a Chinese developer of open-source large language models, has delivered a valuable lesson, showing that democratizing access to intelligent systems is not just a possibility — it’s a responsibility. Today, we have this extraordinary technology in our hands. Despite our desire for more details in the documentation on the method of successfully reducing model size without significant performance degradation, the fact remains clear. The exponential progress we are witnessing is unlike anything seen before. Algorithmic efficiency, the ability to run smaller models at a fraction of the cost, offers a more thoughtful and sustainable path forward compared to the brute-force, massive-compute models we’ve used so far. This breakthrough has pushed the boundaries of different paradigms, demonstrating that efficiency and accessibility can go hand in hand.
The Foundation
Back in 2017, we began laying the foundation for an asynchronous communication platform, designed to foster strong connections with a large audience. Now, imagine combining a communication platform with breakthrough and cost-efficient intelligence technology into a single, unified system. Such an information highway could unlock new possibilities, introducing a new standard of interaction.
The Platform
This new standard could shape a platform where consumers explore what truly matters and discover creative solutions, while producers deliver insights in the most engaging and impactful way. With an advanced intelligence engine, producers can craft messages that resonate, helping others understand better, learn faster, and act with greater confidence. Beyond expanding our collective awareness, platforms like this can amplify our ability to drive meaningful change.
The Danger
Besides synthesized content, our society faces a new challenge — digital dependencies. The danger lies in how hyper-personalization is shaping our choices, behaviors, and even the way we think. As pioneers and builders of what is called real-time intelligence, we strive to equip people with the tools to maintain control.
The Call
We are entering the era of Web 4.0, where intelligent machines will soon autonomously set tasks and manage other machines. Meanwhile, in just a few years, 6 billion people will be connected to the Internet. Yet, most won’t even realize how AI is reshaping their lives, deepening economic inequality and leaving them with little choice but to accept the growing dominance of those who mastered the mechanics of the new digital world earlier. This is our call to action. If we embrace a standard like this, build platforms upon it, and reclaim greater control over our attention, we can create a dimension where humans, intelligent machines, and the knowledge to harness their potential converge for an unimaginable impact.
Join
We are launching a partnership initiative and invite forward-thinkers to join us in bringing all this to life. Let’s help these emerging information trails evolve into grand highways of progress.
