QVAC: the platform that wants to decentralize AI

Published 9 hours ago3 minute read

In the heart of AI Week, was presented, an acronym for Quantum Vault Automatic Computer.
It is an open-source project that proposes a radical and powerful vision: .

In the current world, the most advanced AIs are . This implies that our personal data, our questions, and our interactions are sent and stored by third-party companies, often without real possibility of verification or control.

QVAC completely overturns this paradigm, proposing a peer-to-peer style distributed structure, inspired by BitTorrent, , without going through any central server.

The motto of the project is clear and provocative:

“Not your API, not your intelligence.”

A direct reference to the crypto world (Not your keys, not your coins), which highlights a key point: .

Today, most artificial intelligences – from ChatGPT to Copilot – are accessible only through managed by large companies. And every request we send to these AIs is, in fact, .

With QVAC, however, the code is yours. The models are yours.

At the center of the project is the imminent release of a , scheduled for September.

This SDK will allow anyone to develop , capable of running on any type of hardware:

Thanks to a runtime created ad hoc, based on the available computing power. And everything works , totally offline.

The network on which QVAC is based draws inspiration from two well-known technologies:

The result is a peer-to-peer infrastructure that allows AI agents to . No cloud, no intermediary, no single point of failure.

Each AI is .

According to the QVAC team, in the next ten years, we will experience an exponential growth in the number of smart devices.

There is talk of over , present everywhere: from light bulbs to refrigerators, from wearables to autonomous vehicles.

In this scenario, centralizing everything in a few clouds means :

QVAC was created precisely to counter this model. It promotes a , where each person can own their own artificial intelligence, just as they can own their own cryptocurrencies today.

To demonstrate that the technology is already mature, the team has announced two operational applications:

“`html

“`

An offline translation app capable of translating texts, audio, video, and documents , without sending data to external servers. It works on any device, with performance optimized locally.

An alternative privacy-first to Google Health or Apple Health, which monitors sleep, heart rate, daily habits, and behaviors . The processing occurs in real-time, offline, and provides personalized suggestions.

Two concrete cases that demonstrate how , but rather can strengthen each other.

The team has already brought together over , with the goal of reaching 100 by the end of the year.
The project is ambitious, but supported by a strong ethical, political, and technological vision:

AI cannot become a weapon of control. It must remain a tool of empowerment.

QVAC aims to be , with a global community ready to contribute.

QVAC is not just a technical alternative to OpenAI, Google, or Meta.
It is a manifesto for a new digital era, where intelligent technologies do not colonize the user, but empower them.

If AI truly becomes pervasive – and it will happen – then control over it will become a matter of civil rights.

With QVAC, every individual will be able to:

✅ Run AI locally
✅ Protect your own data
✅ Share only what you decide
✅ Create personalized agents
✅ Participate in global development

Artificial intelligence can change the world.
But only if it remains in the hands of those who inhabit it.
