The BGI Nexus working groups are built for people who want to move from conversation to coordinated action around practical topics for beneficial AGI.
A grassroots network building BGI community across Africa - starting in Nigeria and expanding continent-wide, bringing together developers, students, and institutions to shape beneficial AI from the ground up.
A participatory design framework for building AI tools that communities actually govern - developing collaborative platforms where human values and democratic decision-making shape how AI is developed and used.
Pressure-testing decentralization where open source falls short and developing concrete patterns to prevent power from concentrating as AI scales, aiming towards maximally positive outcomes across stakeholder groups.
Community-driven exploration of how AI safety and ethics can be built into the SingularityNET ecosystem from the ground up, ensuring that human values — in all their diversity — shape the development of beneficial AGI.
The kickoff session introduces initial working-group topics, connects contributors with one another, and sets the next phase of collaboration for the BGI Nexus community.
Connect with other members of the BGI Nexus community and learn where people are already contributing.
Discuss AGI for human flourishing, consciousness, and proactionary versus precautionary approaches to AGI.
Match interests, skills, and questions with contributors who want to keep building after the session.
Help shape ongoing collaboration and quarterly meetups around the topics that gather momentum.
Each topic is intended to expand into ongoing collaboration and quarterly meetups, giving the community a recurring rhythm for practical work.
The kickoff session marks the beginning of a series of collaborative working groups focused on guiding and governing AGI toward beneficial outcomes for humanity.
