About Sahara AI 

Founded by visionary co-founders Sean Ren and Tyler Zhou in April 2023, Sahara AI is a decentralised AI blockchain platform that empowers everyone to shape and own the future of AI. Most AI today remains trapped in a Web 2.0 paradigm where users trade their knowledge for access to AI/ML tools. There is often no transparency on how users’ proprietary models and agents are used by these centralised AI providers and no protection or compensation for users’ contributions. Sahara AI offers a human-centred alternative that protects personal privacy and rewards all contributors.
