"Sentient's Chatbot Revolution: 1M Users in 24 Hours"

Sentient, a decentralized AI developer, has launched Sentient Chat, a consumer-friendly chatbot that rivals Perplexity. The app, which went live on February 26, has already attracted over 1 million users to its waitlist within 24 hours. Sentient Chat debuted at the Open AGI Summit during ETH Denver, marking a significant entry into the consumer AI space.

Sentient Chat is the first chatbot to natively integrate over 15 AI agents, with four agents initially available at launch. This allows users to invoke specialized functions directly within the interface and experiment with automating tasks. The app also features a real-time search function integrated with Dobby’s knowledge base and current internet data, providing up-to-date responses unbound by static training sets.

Sentient Chat is powered by Dobby, the world’s first community-owned AI model, which was released earlier this year to over 660,000 users. Holders of Dobby NFTs, tied to Sentient’s flagship Loyal AI model, will get priority in accessing Sentient Chat. The early access waitlist and raffle went live on February 25.

The launch of Sentient Chat builds on Sentient’s earlier progress with Dobby, which introduced human-like conversation to AI models. Evaluations by Confident AI highlight Dobby’s ability to maintain performance while undergoing finetuning and leading in human-like engagement. Sentient Chat leverages these strengths to offer a unique chatbot experience that combines real-time capabilities with a responsive design that caters to Sentient’s community-centric ethos.

With its waitlist exceeding 1 million and growing, Sentient Chat demonstrates a clear demand for a chatbot that combines utility with user ownership. Its design ensures that the more the chatbot is utilized, the more benefits accrue to its community while extending the capabilities of what can be done with conversational AI.
