Ep. 446 Anna Kazlauskas | Network of User-Owned Data with Vana


Listen Later

For episode 446, Core Contributor Anna Kazlauskas joins Brandon Zemp to talk more about Vana and how they are building a network for user-owned data.

Vana is a company committed to an open internet where individuals have control over their personal data and the AI models they contribute to. The company envisions a future where AI models are developed collaboratively by communities, similar to open-source software.
To achieve this, Vana aims to break down the barriers of data silos by empowering users to export their own data. By doing so, researchers can access high-quality datasets and foster innovation in AI. Vana's ultimate goal is to create a foundation model that is owned by its users, trained on data contributed by 100 million individuals, and powered by their collective computing resources.
