Questions from the CryptoRank team
#1. Can you tell us more about the vision behind Humans.ai, and why are you launching it?
Bogdan F.: – Our vision is to scale human potential by democratizing creativity through AI. Humans.ai is building the world’s first ecosystem for AI modeling, training, and governance. It is creating an all-in-one platform for AI-based creation and governance at scale, beginning with an initial focus on synthetic media. Through its creative studio and token-based ownership and accountability system, Humans.ai is designed to ensure contributions are fairly rewarded and that every AI is kept honest over the long term. We plan to continue investing in innovation, empower creators to build without limitations, and innovate using blockchain technology and AI, everything based on governance and transparency for all AI models generated on the Humans.ai platform.
#2. Let’s talk about Humans.ai competitive advantage. What differs you from other similar projects?
Bogdan F.: –Humans.ai creates the world’s first decentralized AI execution model which secures your data within an AI creating unique data products, with a strong focus on synthetic media. It combines a library of AI tools into a creative studio suite where users will be able to pick and choose as they bring their ideas to life. Individuals are empowered to create and own their digital likenesses, which may be used by themselves and others in the creation of any number of digital assets. The synthetic media, AI apps, and other digital assets utilize blockchain technology to generate Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) as a way of creating transparency, accountability, and long-term governance.
Similar projects consist of closed platforms, use cases and research limited to their in-house teams, as opposed to the open community Humans.ai is building.
#3. We’d love to hear a bit more about your roadmap so far and what is coming next. What key features are you developing?
Bogdan F.: – The key features we are working on are part of the Humans Application-Specific Chain. We are building technology around the encapsulation of AI to empower people to participate in governance, management, and decide the fate of any AI, essentially making sure that the objective of the AI is aligned with the human’s objective. Everything that we do stems from the fact that we put humans at the forefront of this AI revolution. We are creating a new consensus mechanism called Proof-of-Human, which relies on humans to leverage their biometric data to prove that a specific AI is still under close biological supervision. Our key milestones in building the ecosystem are:
- Private Sale – September 2021
- Token Generation Event – December 2021
- Humans Summit – Q1 2022
- Testnet Launch – Q2 2022
- Proof-of-Human App Suite – Q3 2022
- Mainnet Launch – Q4 2022
There is a great effort behind each milestone in order to be achieved. Each and every milestone challenges us with research that was not encountered before in the blockchain and AI space.
#4. Can you tell us more about the functionality of the project?
Bogdan F.: – As you know, our project is heavily reliant upon AI. By using this wonderful tool that AI is, we have managed to give humans all over the world the opportunity of tokenizing any form of human nature, ranging from their voice and physical appearance, all the way to more complex aspects such as choreographies or dance moves.
They’re so many that I’m sure not even our team has managed to discover every single aspect tied to the functionality of this project.
Let me give you an example that I think most people will understand and resonate with. We all love our grandparents, as they usually contribute a great deal to our growing up. However, we know that they can’t be here forever, unfortunately. With the use of our technology, one can change this to a certain extent. Picture those stories that your grandma used to read you as a kid. Now you can record her voice and use it in the future, long after she is gone, to have her read stories to your own kids or even to hear that golden advice that only she knew how to give.
Another example could be tied a lot more to some financial aspects rather than emotional ones, as was the case above. Let’s suppose a big company would like to shoot a commercial consisting of a person that is very good looking, can sing really well and is the best dancer. With our technology, this person can be composed of up to 3 different people, each making available what they are best at. As such, the said company would be able to use the voice of person X, the looks of person Y, and the dance moves of person Z, putting them all together into a single person and having that person complete the commercial without them or the company having to travel at all, thus simplifying and the whole production process and making it more cost-efficient also. With this option, every participant would of course receive payment for their contribution, all stipulated within the smart contracts of those 3 NFTs (the face, the dance, and the voice).
As I’ve said, the possibilities are limitless, it’s all up to you as Humans to think about them and discover more every day.
Questions from Twitter
#1. NFTs are undeniably a big deal in the blockchain space right now. There are an increasing number of NFTs being created across a broad range of platforms like music, art, gaming, and collectibles. So how does Humans.ai differ from the other NFT marketplace?
Bogdan F.: – Humans.ai creates an all-in-one platform for AI-based creation and governance at scale, beginning with an initial focus on synthetic media. We are a next-generation blockchain platform that brings together an ecosystem of stakeholders around the use of AI to create a scale. It combines a library of AI tools into a Humans.ai Studio suite from which users can pick and choose as they bring their ideas to life. Through this initiative, individuals are empowered to generate and own their digital likenesses to create innumerable digital assets, synthetic media, AI apps, and other digital assets. In addition, Humans.ai utilizes blockchain technology to generate Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) to ensure transparency, provenance, accountability, and long-term governance.
#2. Most users only care about immediate benefits rather than the real value of the project in the long term. How can Your Project convince users to invest in your platform in the long term?
Bogdan F.: – Once people understand what our ecosystem brings from a value and novelty perspective we are confident that people will stay with us.
#3. Smart contracts are susceptible to failure and many projects fall victim to this, costing users money and the project discrediting. How reliable and secure is your smart contract? Have you tested it through any of the parties?
Bogdan F.: – Our smart contract has been tested and audited by the best-specialized blockchain security companies in the market, we’re ranked at the highest safety factor, and our team maintains control when it comes to the behavior and the logistics of the smart contract.
Questions from Telegram
#1. What are plans for global expansion? Are you focusing on the market at this time or focus on building and developing or getting customers and users, or partnerships?
Bogdan F.: – We are focusing on global expansion, building strong products, and bringing huge partners in our ecosystem. Announcements in regards to the partnerships will follow in the next months.
#2. Can you share your social media links so we can keep ourselves updated?

- Telegram community (20k+ members)
- Medium
#3. Can you share with us your tokenomics? How much is the total and circulation supply of your tokens? Will there be a buyback system or token burning in the future?
Bogdan F.: – Sure it is right here:
