Artificial Liquid Intelligence (ALI) is a blockchain-based token that serves as the native utility token of the Alethea AI Protocol. It powers a decentralized platform designed for AI development and a liquid workforce. The ALI token facilitates transactions within the platform, governs the protocol, and supports the creation and operation of intelligent NFTs (iNFTs).
ALI operates on the Ethereum blockchain, utilising ERC-20 tokens. It forms part of the AI Protocol, which combines advanced AI computational capabilities with blockchain's secure infrastructure. This integration allows for the creation of iNFTs and decentralised AI models. The protocol employs smart contracts to automate on-chain transactions and uses decentralised inference clusters for AI model processing.
The potential use cases for ALI include:
ALI was introduced by Alethea AI in 2021 on the Ethereum blockchain as part of the AI Protocol. Key milestones include the unveiling of the first intelligent NFT, Alice, and the launch of the Fusion Beta, which integrated NFTs with intelligence pods. The protocol's progressive decentralisation and the introduction of AI Protocol V3 have furthered its development. The ALI token facilitates the protocol's governance and operation, with a total supply of 10 billion units and 3.58 billion in circulation as of May 2024.
