In this episode, we sit down with Don Tapscott, author of Blockchain Revolution and a leading voice on digital transformation. Don introduces the concept of “identic AI,” a new phase where personal AI agents become part of our identity and must remain self-sovereign to protect human agency. He outlines how we can decentralize the AI stack—from compute and data to models and logic—using blockchain, DPIN networks, and open governance. We also explore the risks of centralized AI, the parallels to past technology cycles, the future of public digital infrastructure, and Don’s vision for universal basic AI as a public good.
