Kimera Overview

in #crypto6 years ago

INTRODUCTION

Kimera wants to move humanity forward by solving the challenges we face as a species and disrupting an economic model which currently disproportionally benefits the wealthy. Funds raised from an Initial Coin Offering (ICO) will be used to power this vision by integrating two technologies: Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and blockchain smart contracts.

"Inventing [AGI] would be one of the greatest advances in the history of science. It would speed up the progress of knowledge across the board, and change the world in ways we can barely imagine."

— Pedro Domingos, Professor, University of Washington

Based on our initial 2005 research, Kimera created and successfully demonstrated a fully functional AGI solution back in 2010. Since that time, we’ve continued evolving our technology and incorporated learnings from two beta tests which had over a thousand individual participants worldwide.

ARCHITECTURE

Due to its very nature, AGI cannot be designed to solve a specific problem; instead it must be raised. It is the architecture, however that determines its overall abilities. Because it is practically impossible to develop a system that can do everything, our architectural design is based on three key tenets:

1)  Privacy - Personal information should remain private and under user control

2)  Extensible - Nigel AGI needed to be “raised” and would become more valuable over time

3)  Decentralized – System should be controlled by humanity, not powerful organizations

To achieve these goals, we built the Nigel AGI on a three-tiered architecture as shown below.

Layer 1 – The Nigel Middleware

The first layer is the Nigel device middleware, a piece of software that can be integrated into the device to manage sensor data acquisition and execution of intelligence. The technology can be integrated as high up as the application layer, which is Kimera’s first intent, but device manufacturers can integrate it deep into the operating system to achieve “native device intelligence.”

Layer 2 – The Nigel Agent

The second layer is the Nigel Agent. Unlike current data acquisition models incorporated by companies such as Google and Facebook, Kimera believes all data created by a person should delivered to the person’s Nigel Agent and stay within their control. 19 These agents will be open-sourced and can be hosted anywhere in the world, providing people with unprecedented control of their own data. To help people get started, Kimera will host these agents on our systems. Kimera encourages users to move their agents as soon as possible.

Layer 3 – The Nigel AGI Node

The final layer is the Nigel AGI Node, where the core algorithm resides that includes the general machine learning and applied intelligence. This layer will be productized and made available to network providers, including large public networks like AT&T or Comcast, or corporate private networks, or small business networks like a neighborhood coffee shop or home networks.

GROWTH AND VALUE PROPOSITION

MARKET OVERVIEW

Companies involved in the AGI space have been extremely successful over the last 18 months; whether or not they are as close to achieving true AGI as Kimera. The impressive roster of exits, capital raises, and ICOs reveals a pattern:

1.  DeepMind was acquired by Google for ~$550M, despite generating no revenue

2.  Vicarious has raised $134M in venture capital, indicating a valuation in excess of $500M

3.  SingularityNET conducted a recent ICO, where they were oversubscribed by offers to invest amounting to $365M (which was over 10x their cap of $36M).

Kimera is in the same bracket as these other three, and has every basis from which to generate a similar valuation (and hence similar ICO interest as SingularityNET). The reason AGI commands such a high market value despite all these companies who are currently in the very early stage in terms of recurring revenue, is that most companies are devoted to very narrow applications of AI. Hence there is a high probability they are just stepping stones, rather than the end goal of AGI. Kimera is different.

KIMERA OVERVIEW

Kimera offers a value proposition to several stake holders within the digital ecosystem.

People

● Intelligent hardware and software continuously learns and automates life

● New functionality and services is delivered without the need to manage more complex devices and interactions

● Decentralized software agents give users control over how their data is managed and used

● Users earn tokens automatically as they generate sensor data through the normal activities they are involved with in their everyday lives

Devices

● Manufacturers are financially incentivized to build new types of connected devices, as they receive a share of the on-going value stream their products create

● Manufacturers earn revenue as their devices bring value to people

Software Developers

Proactive peer-to-peer networks act as a “reverse app store" model. Rather than users having to go and find apps, the apps are proactively moved to users as needed

● Dynamic apps built on the fly by interconnecting microservices, creating abundant opportunities for new types of intelligent software 24

● Software developers earn tokens every time their apps runs on a consumer device

AGI Nodes

● Network owners operating an AGI node get full control over their networks, ability to bias the intelligence and prevent certain services to run on their networks

● Node operators manage the revenue share model in their own network
