Don explains why the next stage of AI is “identic AI”—self-sovereign personal agents that extend our intelligence—and why controlling this intelligence is essential for preserving human agency. We also discuss the need to decentralize the AI stack, the role of blockchain in enabling privacy and ownership, and how public-private collaboration can ensure equitable access to these new capabilities. Don shares insights from his decades of observing technological paradigm shifts and offers a compelling vision for building an AI-powered future that strengthens, rather than undermines, human autonomy.
