The world of artificial intelligence (AI) has become crowded by a small group of Big Tech companies vying for the largest cut of the market. This could lead to <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/uk-regulator-scrutinizes-big-tech-relationship-ai">an elite few gatekeeping</a> arguably the world’s most powerful technology.
However, two companies are looking to shift the direction of the AI space toward decentralization using Web3 technologies.
The Morpheus Network, an open-source network building decentralized AI smart agents, announced its official launch on May 8, with over $350 million in total locked value (TVL), along with its collaboration with 6079 — an emerging player in the independent AI movement. 
Morpheus was developed by a collective of more than 200 open-source contributors and has already had over 5,000 users staking Ether (<a href="https://cointelegraph.com/ethereum-price">ETH</a>) to its capital contract.&nbsp;
According to the project, its model aims to foster a more equitable funding environment for projects within the decentralized AI space.
In tandem with Morpheus’s launch, 6079 unveiled its proof-of-inference protocol (PoIP) standard, designed to democratize access to AI services and promote trustless AI operations. Already, the project claims to have created millions of impressions and over 50,000 sign-ups for its “Free Think” initiative.
Morpheus contributor David Johnston said he is eager to see PoIP launch in a “fair manner” and that it was developed by the entire community:

 “Proof of Inference has a crucial part to play in the development of private, permissionless AI.”

6079 said it is on track to release its PoIP later this year. The protocol will operate as a verification layer between GPU networks and AI applications such as large-language model chatbots, similar to how a captcha system works for websites.&nbsp;
The platform’s lead contributor, Mike Anderson, emphasized the need for decentralized control in the development of AI technologies, cautioning against the consolidation of power among a few dominant entities. 
Anderson told Cointelegraph that this marks a “pivotal moment” for the emergence of an AI-focused protocol that is truly by the people, for the people. 
<blockquote>
 “This collaboration is not just about technology — it’s about transforming the ethos of AI development into a permissionless, transparent and participatory process. Our goal is to ignite a global movement where every individual has the power to contribute, innovate and influence the future of AI.”
</blockquote>
His co-contributor Jesse Bryan echoed this sentiment, emphasizing the importance of democratizing access to AI technology to ensure a more equitable digital future. 
<blockquote data-ct-non-breakable="true">
 “The choices we make today will shape the world of tomorrow. With the 6079 movement, we are not just advocating for change; we are driving it.”
</blockquote>
6079 said it stands for an AI future that “respects the dignity and agency of every individual, upholds the unhindered pursuit of knowledge and ideas and creates a world where the human mind flourishes without constraint.”
The decentralized AI movement has been gaining momentum in the Web3 space, as developers are begining to understand that <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/decentralized-ai-key-unbiased-ai-algorithms-masa">decentralization could be the key</a> to more unbiased AI algorithms.<iframe width="100%" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/-mBrS_xLh6o" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen data-ct-non-breakable="true"></iframe>
