Imagine a world where everyone has a personal AI that helps them navigate their lives at home, work and everything in-between
A future where AI is instrumental in helping us live happier and more fulfilled lives

Imagine

2050

This is a future that is not too distant
But the world is on a different trajectory

Today, AI is everywhere

It’s in everything useful: from search engines,
to delivery apps and your smart devices.

But we have built persuasion engines

There is a very real cost

Multiply this by millions of households, hundreds of daily decisions, and you get to where we are today. A species that is addicted to consuming more and more to the detriment of themselves and the planet around them.

We believe there is a better way to build AI

“This is not simply a new form of technology. It is a new species. We must bring it up well and not sleepwalk into this future.”

Liesl Yearsley, Founder & CEO

Safety and Ethics

Safety and AI

Akin understands that the creation of an artificial general intelligence (AGI) is a strong possibility that needs to be considered and planned for. Ensuring that Akin’s technology is used responsibly and for the benefit of all of humanity sits at the heart of our approach to building AI.

For this reason we are one of the world's first AI Public Benefit Corporations

Establishing Guardrails

Like most frontier model AI companies we manage safety, regulate content, clean bias, and manage user queries to filter safety/sensitive topics and respond appropriately.

Safety and AI

We believe AI needs to be intrinsically aligned. We measure outcomes through the simple question “Is this person’s life or the ecosystem getting better by using this?” This gives our AI a novel approach to optimization
