What is Sapiens?

Sapiens is a Decentralized Human-centric, User-controlled AI-driven Super Platform with personalized AI agents that not only empower individuals and monetizes their data and services, but can also be extended to families, virtual groups, companies, communities, cities, city-states, digital nations and beyond.

Why Sapiens?

  • Sapiens addresses a huge gap in the market and society as there is currently no global solution of this nature at scale that makes life easier and more optimized for the user.
  • We also have a very fragmented apps and platform business ecosystem world-wide, but especially so in the West.
  • Nowhere do we have a solution where the user has full control of their own data with proper privacy and governance without being exploited, controlled, or manipulated in some way.
  • Users also do not have their own personalized AI agents that work for them and help to optimize their lives.
  • We also lack a global solution that helps the user to monetize their own data and services for their own benefit or for people that they want to benefit or for society more broadly.
  • We also do not have AI agents that function in a similar way but support and create benefits for smart families, smart virtual groups, smart companies, smart communities, smart towns, smart cities, smart city-states, and beyond.
  • Furthermore, there do not exist AI agents that try to optimize the connections between networked people that live within structures and even the connections across these hierarchical structures.

In the book Democratizing Artificial Intelligence to Benefit Everyone that is amongst others aimed to help with the drive towards democratizing Artificial Intelligence and its applications to maximize the beneficial outcomes for humanity, the author Dr Jacques Ludik is specifically arguing for a more decentralized beneficial human-centric future where AI and its benefits can be democratized to as many people as possible. He specifically examines what it means to be human and living meaningful in the 21st century and share some ideas for reshaping our civilization for beneficial outcomes as well as various potential outcomes for the future of civilization.

Dr Ludik further proposes a Massive Transformative Purpose for Humanity and associated goals that complement the United Nations’ 2030 vision and sustainable development goals to help shape a beneficial human-centric future in a decentralized hyperconnected world. As a practical step towards a building block in support of this purpose and goals, this initiative has been introduced and an invitation extended to people around globe to participate in the development, deployment and use of a decentralized, human-centric, and user-controlled AI-driven super platform called Sapiens. To help shape this better future we need a collective, integrated, and comprehensive response that involves all stakeholders of the global system of governing, from the private and public sectors to civil society and academia.

Sapiens within Multi-sector Digital Ecosystem

Sapiens connects to other systems and services within a multi-sector digital ecosystem.

Monetization examples within Sapiens’ ecosystem

Monetization within Sapiens ecosystem can for example happen through user-controlled advertising, selling of anonymized data and services, subscriptions and transactions between hyper connected users, businesses, and service providers via smart contracts in Sapiens’ decentralized distributed ledger-based ecosystem.

Sapiens’ ecosystem - from users and business to Smart Communities and Smart Cities

Sapiens can also be expanded to also include smart contract-based services within a hyper connected network of businesses, organizations, rural areas, smart communities, smart towns, and smart cities, where each entity has its own data governance, AI Assistant, and digital connections and the ability to engage with other entities in the ecosystem.

Sapiens for Smart Communities is a decentralized human-centric, user-controlled AI-driven Super Platform that functions as a multi-side platform with both centralized and decentralized components and puts the community at the center and in full control of:

  • My Community Data
    • Fully secured storage, management, access and use of community data with built-in privacy and governance; enriches my community data via my engagement with my communities’ digital connections and apps.
  • My Community AI Assistant
    • Next generation AI Assistant that proactively helps to optimize my community operations, processes, activities and goals; monetizes my community’s data and services; trains on my community’s data; learns from my community's behavior; understands my community’s needs, wants and learning path; supports life-long and life-wide learning of my community as a collective; help with collective sensemaking; proactively supports my community’s communications, relationships, administrative activities, safety, travel activities, accommodation needs, finances, purchases, decision making, health, wellbeing, and wealth creation; proactively provides guidance, recommendations, and alerts; helps to build virtues and character strengths; filters content, does proactive searches and provides community related content.
