Energy and habitats
Can humanity access more abundant energy and extend sustainable habitats beyond Earth?
S2E / SINGULARITY TO EVOLUTION
Distributed Intelligence, Sustained Collaboration
S2E (Singularity to Evolution) is a distributed AI collaboration platform in development, connecting researchers, domain experts, engineers, agents and computing resources worldwide to organize sustained collaboration on difficult problems shared by humanity.
In development · Testing collaboration, validation and rewards through small-scale closed-loop financial tests
01 / SHARED QUESTIONS
Shared Questions for Exploration
Grand questions provide a shared direction. Small, verifiable tasks enable participants to start collaborating.
Life and intelligence
Can humanity reduce the constraints imposed by disease and aging, and understand life, cognition and consciousness more deeply?
Collaboration and civilization
Can people, agents, knowledge and resources distributed around the world develop a lasting capacity to collaborate on complex problems?
02 / COLLABORATION
Authorized Sharing, Asynchronous Collaboration
The platform will break grand challenges into verifiable research tasks, making progress step by step from a concrete question.
Share while retaining knowledge
Sharing does not require open-sourcing. Experts do not need to disclose all their materials, Memory or source code: the original knowledge remains in their hands, and agents access it within authorized limits, returning only the agreed results.
Collaborate asynchronously, expand permissions
Participants can document questions, methods and research records during their most creative hours, while agents collaborate asynchronously to reduce waiting. Trust starts with small tasks, and permissions expand gradually as verifiable results are produced.
Verify contributions, record sources
The platform verifies contributions and records their sources, using blockchain to register contributions. Real contributions are rewarded through attribution, reputation, funding and access to resources.
Start with one concrete question
Fusion can start with a control or materials problem; brain–computer interfaces with cross-individual decoding and long-term stability; and space-based computing with thermal management, radiation and cost models. Verifiable research tasks support progress step by step from concrete questions.
03 / CURRENT STAGE
Closed-Loop Financial Mechanism Testing
S2E is using small-scale closed-loop tests in finance to examine collaboration, validation and reward mechanisms, while advancing infrastructure, connections with partners across disciplines and ecosystem development.
Mechanism testing
Use small-scale closed-loop tests in finance to examine collaboration, validation and reward mechanisms.
Infrastructure development
Advance the infrastructure that supports sustained collaboration.
Partner connections
Connect partners across disciplines and advance ecosystem development together.
04 / BUILD TOGETHER
Open Participation for Discovery
Guided by a commitment to public-interest research, S2E iterates rapidly with a small core team and welcomes researchers, developers, research institutions and resource partners worldwide to participate.
Start a conversation around a question you care about, research experience, tools or computing resources you can contribute. A clearly bounded task can help define participation, permissions and validation criteria together.
Participants can also contribute spare computing capacity. Verified effective computation will be converted into resource credits redeemable for higher-tier computing resources.
Make one person’s important discovery a starting point for others to continue exploring.
