Tether Announces Tether AI, a Decentralized, Open-Source Artificial Intelligence Platform That Operates on All Devices Without API Keys or Centralized Control Mechanisms.
Tether, the world's largest stablecoin issuer, has officially entered the artificial intelligence field by launching Tether AI - a completely open-source and decentralized platform. This information was revealed by CEO Paolo Ardoino on the X platform, marking Tether's notable expansion from the financial sector to AI technology.
Reshaping the Future of Artificial Intelligence
Tether AI is introduced by the company as an "infinite personal intelligence" solution, with a development philosophy focused on user autonomy and control. The platform has several standout features that differentiate it from current AI models in the market.
First, Tether AI is developed entirely as an open-source model, allowing the community to not only supervise but also participate in the development process. This ensures transparency and safety for users while creating conditions for community contributions and improvements.
Second, the platform does not require API keys, eliminating dependence on central providers and enhancing user privacy. Users can deploy Tether AI on any device, from mobile phones to dedicated servers, providing flexibility in usage.
Another notable point is the ability to integrate payments with USDT and Bitcoin through the WDK (Wallet Development Kit), creating a foundation for an AI ecosystem capable of performing automatic financial transactions.
Tether AI is designed to operate as a runtime infrastructure for independent AI agents, aiming towards a distributed network where each individual can own and operate their own artificial intelligence. This reflects a long-term vision of a future where AI agents can interact directly with each other in a peer-to-peer network without centralized intermediaries.
