BCA (Non-Profit)

Bonseyes Community Association (BCA) is a non-profit AI-focused association based in Switzerland. BCA was created and inspired by the H2020 Platform for Open Development of Systems of Artificial Intelligence (https://cordis.europa.eu/project/id/732204/results) project to ensure that artificial intelligence benefits all of society through open, distributed, and decentralized platforms and technology. BCA’s mission is to ensure that artificial intelligence (in all forms from narrow to general) which will ultimately create highly autonomous systems benefits all of society – not just a select few. We will attempt to directly build open technology platforms supporting distributed artificial intelligence marketplaces empowering innovators, data scientists, and developers to build and trade value creating, safe, and beneficial AI aligned with societal goals. We will also consider our mission fulfilled if our work aids others to achieve this outcome. To that end, the association pursues the following non- commercial goals: - Increasing knowledge and understanding of the distributed artificial intelligence systems development across government, universities, industry, and startups. - Development of an open platform technology and infrastructure for a distributed artificial intelligence marketplace. - Promoting research into decentralized and distributed artificial intelligence. We support open source initiatives around the Bonseyes ecosystem such as Bonseyes Opensource (https://www.linkedin.com/in/bonseyes-opensource-9ab889146/)
