Cen Inc. operates a blockchain-based platform called Basic Intelligence Token (BIT) that crowdsources human knowledge to create a curated knowledge base optimized for AI processing. The platform enables partners to build custom AI systems or use BIT's native chatbots to provide services. It rewards knowledge authors with tokens and facilitates payments for knowledge use, computing power, and human oversight. The system supports near real-time learning through a large-scale communication network of knowledge miners and allows users to provide contextual data for better AI interaction. Cen aims to address AI centralization, fragility, and privacy issues by creating a fair partnership between human and artificial intelligence, positioning itself in the emerging intelligence economy with a unique token-based business model.
