DebitMyData, the futuristic technology company redefining data ownership and digital value, announced a breakthrough in artificial intelligence: the DebitMyData LLM-Human Energy Grid (DID), the first ethically-sourced foundation model. Unlike traditional AI models trained on scraped data without permission, DID is built on consented, authenticated, and compensated human contributions, creating a new paradigm in AI development.
“We believe the future of artificial intelligence must be rooted in ethics, consent, and human empowerment,” said Preska Thomas, Founder and CEO of DebitMyData. “DID isn’t just another foundation model—it is the first to be trained by people, for people, ensuring fairness, transparency, and shared value at every step.”
Redefining the Foundation Model
Until now, companies like OpenAI and Anthropic have developed their large language models by harvesting vast amounts of publicly available data, sparking global debates over copyright, intellectual property, and fairness. DebitMyData’s approach flips this model on its head.
- Human Energy Grid: Instead of scraping the internet, DebitMyData’s DID model is trained through “Agentic Avatars,” digital representations that users create and refine. These avatars feed a continuously growing dataset, fueled by active user participation and consent.
- Ethically-Sourced Data: Every contribution is authenticated, permissioned, and fairly compensated, solving what many have called the “original sin” of AI—training without consent.
- General-Purpose Scale: Like other foundation models, DID is designed for broad, general applications across industries, serving as the base layer for innovation, security, and commerce within the DebitMyData ecosystem.
Why DID is a Foundation Model—With a Difference
A “foundation model” is not defined by how it was trained, but by its scale and adaptability. By aggregating millions of user contributions through the Human Energy Grid, DID achieves the same vast scope as traditional models while introducing an entirely new ethical and economic framework.
This means DID not only qualifies as a foundation model—it sets a new global standard:
- Scale at Consent: Millions of Agentic Avatars create a dataset as rich and diverse as any scraped internet corpus.
- Generality with Integrity: DID serves as a foundational layer for applications ranging from enterprise AI solutions to personal security, but with transparency and fairness at its core.
A Paradigm Shift in AI
With DID, DebitMyData is leading the way toward a new generation of artificial intelligence—one that places humans at the center, not as passive data sources, but as active stakeholders in the creation of powerful digital systems.
“This is not just about technology—it’s about rewriting the social contract between humans and AI,” Thomas added. “For the first time, people are not being exploited by the system—they are the system. And they benefit directly from the intelligence they help build.”
DebitMyData™ is pioneering the future of ethically-powered AI by putting ownership, compensation, and transparency into the hands of individuals. Through its Human Energy Grid and Agentic Avatars, the company is unlocking a revolutionary ecosystem where people fuel the intelligence of tomorrow—and get paid for it.
