The current path of AI development leads to a future where a few powerful companies control this transformative technology, with the potential to become the arbiter of truth, manipulate and monetize private user data, and moderate who has access to the future of intelligence.
No entity, private or public, should have the power to monopolize or contextualize truth. Open-source, uncensored, and decentralised AI is impervious to political fancy and ideology, and offers a necessary alternative.
Teana is the COO of Venice.ai, a private, permissionless generative AI platform. Venice uniquely offers users uncensored access to open-source generative AI within a privacy preserving technical architecture.
Teana has held leadership roles at Circle, the Digital Chamber, Crypto.com and Binance, responsible for U.K. and European operations, go-to-market strategies and government relations. She is a board member of CryptoUK, the trade body representing Web3 companies UK.
