In an era where the lines between the physical and digital worlds blur, the concept of decentralized spatial computing powered by advanced AI presents unprecedented financial potential.
In this episode of The Metaverse Podcast, host Jamie Burke welcomes Nils Pihl, the founder and CEO of Auki Labs and The Posemesh Foundation, to explore the groundbreaking developments in spatial computing and decentralized machine perception networks.
Their conversation covers the advancements in the posemesh protocol and its transformative implications for the future: the podcast unpacks the trillion-dollar opportunities that lie at the intersection of decentralized spatial computing and AI.
Nils and Jamie explore how these advancements pave the way for practical applications in various industries. They highlight real-world use cases, particularly in the retail sector, where spatial AI enhances customer experiences by utilizing customers' smartphones for spatial data collection, analysis, and more.
The podcast also ventures into the future, predicting the significant impacts of decentralized machine perception networks on smart cities, IoT ecosystems, self-driving cars, and more. Jamie and Nils discuss how Web3 infrastructure can support agentic network economic work, Jamie’s thesis on Web4 and a post-internet world, the next decade of internet protocols, and the potential of Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePIN) to drastically reshape our civilization.

About Auki Labs
Auki is building the posemesh, a decentralized machine perception network for the next 100 billion people, devices and AI on Earth and beyond. The posemesh is an external and collaborative sense of space that machines and AI can use to understand the physical world.
Our mission is to improve civilization’s intercognitive capacity; our ability to think, experience and solve problems together with each other and AI. The greatest way to extend human reach is to collaborate with others. We are building consciousness-expanding technology to reduce the friction of communication and bridge minds.

About The Posemesh
The posemesh is an open-source protocol that powers a decentralized, blockchain-based spatial computing network.
The posemesh is designed for a future where spatial computing is both collaborative and privacy-preserving. It limits any organization's surveillance capabilities and encourages sovereign ownership of private maps of personal and public spaces.
The decentralization also offers a competitive advantage, especially in shared spatial computing sessions, AR for example, where low latency is crucial. The posemesh is the next step in the decentralization movement, responding as an antidote to the growing power of big tech.
The Posemesh has tasked Auki Labs with developing the software infrastructure of the posemesh.
