GEAR is a noval form of AI, with deep empathy that’s able to manage complex systems and optimisze for wellbeng.
Reasoning abilities that enable GEAR to understand and solve problems
The ability to understand how an environment or system comes together
Building models of the world that enable highly soph -isticated scenario analysis
The ability to understand people’s emotions and adapt responses
GEAR breaks down its understanding of the world into three data points - time, location and a third special variable called ‘semantics’. These are captured through a number of different sensors - we call these embodiments.
This box represents your world. This point represents GEAR’s best understanding of you at that point in time - the time, your location and everything else captured by the sensors. Multiply this by millions of other moments in your life and you’ll get a box that more closely represents this.
GEAR also takes note of your needs or goals that you’ve expressed. It could be something as simple as ‘I want to live a healthier life’. GEAR takes all these goals and maps out what your life would look like with these goals achieved.
Finally, with GEAR having a clear understanding of where you are presently and what your goals are, it can help chart a course to those goals.
As a frontier model, GEAR is the platform at the core of Akin’s technology ecosystem.
GEAR is a highly flexible system that can be applied to a wide set of general cognitive problems.
Akin has designed and built a flexible ecosystem of AI-powered solutions in-use by public and private organisations, today.
Yes, GEAR is a form of Artificial General Intelligence with emergent capabilities. We take this responsibility seriously, which is why we incorporated as a public benefit company.
GEAR is a form of generative AI in that it can generate an output. GEAR has unique capabilities in that it also generates a dynamic model of the world, and simulates approaches to solve a given problem or reach a goal state. This means it has potential to deal with many tasks that challenge classic GenAI today.
Yes. However GEAR’s main focus is on generating human communication (text, audio, reports).
GEAR also creates dynamic maps of event trajectories to augment human life, and reports on human wellbeing and goal optimization.
Today GEAR is only available to health insurance and clinical trial partners, people with Government support packages, and for special projects (eg advanced robotics deployments).
In the next phase, 2024, we will make GEAR more broadly available to a wider range of partners. Broader public deployment will come after that.
Akin is a frontier AI developer. We have a proprietary frontier model and are not dependent on other systems.
