Deep dive into user-owned AI, onchain automation, and where this all connects with crypto.

An AI agent with no hidden motives or data harvesting. Dream or reality?

In today's episode, we talk with Illia Polosukhin, co-founder of NEAR Protocol about the idea of having your own AI.

That's exactly what NEAR has created with their AI Transaction Protocol (AITP). They have an open ecosystem where AI systems can communicate and transact while you maintain complete control.

NEAR isn't just developing better AI technology, they're also ensuring that automated systems remain open, verifiable, and in your hands rather than locked behind corporate walls.

Join us on how NEAR's blockchain foundation enables user-owned AI and why this matters moving forward.
