Online Advertising Technology for AGI and SuperIntelligence (ABSTRACT)
Currently, online advertising systems are primarily used to attract human attention and monetize it by selling products and services to humans. A superior way to monetize human attention specifically, and the attention of any intelligent entity more generally, is to focus it on solving valuable problems.
This invention shows how to capture specific human (or non-human) expertise via online ads and then use that expertise to train advanced AI systems which then solve valuable problems using that expertise. Using the invention, Alphabet/Google, Meta, Amazon, Alibaba, ByteDance/TikTok, Microsoft, Apple, TenCent, Baidu, X, Spotify, PubMatic, Pinterest, Snap and other online advertisers can significantly increase their online advertising revenue. The system and methods also enable existing online advertising technology to power AI, Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), and SuperIntelligent systems.
The technology includes systems and methods that increase AI safety and maximize the chances of human survival and prosperity in the age of AI.
Online Advertising Technology for AGI and SuperIntelligence (GEMINI PRO SUMMARY)
​
This provisional patent application describes a system for utilizing online advertising to train and improve Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and SuperIntelligent AGI (SuperIntelligence or “SI”). It overcomes the current limitations of using online advertising primarily to attract human attention and then monetize it via product and service sales by directly connecting the attention of human experts, through online ads, to the problem-solving needs of AI systems, ultimately achieving SuperIntelligence.
​
The invention describes a collaborative system (and methods) for training and improving AGI/SI systems that involves humans (and other intelligent entities) working together to solve problems. The patent focuses on the ability to harness human attention and knowledge in a more efficient and effective way than using the current online advertising model. The invention details a specific type of online ad unit, a Human Attention Spot Market, and a Human Agent/Experts Database that are designed to identify and acquire human expertise, as well as the methods for customizing and personalizing AI agents. The system also uses human and AI agents to solve problems together via the “WorldThink Tree” - a problem-solving network - which is depicted in the application.
Novel Features of the Patent
​
The novel features of this patent include:
-
The direct use of human attention to train and improve AGI/SI systems. While previous AI systems have relied on training with large datasets, this patent proposes a new approach of directly connecting human experts, via online ads, to the specific problem-solving needs of AI systems. This direct approach eliminates the need to collect massive datasets and allows for more focused and efficient training.
-
The Human Attention Spot Market. This market mechanism provides a platform for humans to sell their expertise and knowledge to AI systems, ensuring that they are compensated fairly for their time and effort. This system, along with the Human Agent/Experts Database, allows for the identification and acquisition of specialized knowledge and expertise that is critical for advancing AGI/SI systems.
-
The use of human values and ethics to ensure the safety of AGI/SI systems. The invention integrates human values and ethics into the design of the problem-solving network, ensuring that AGI/SI systems learn to make ethical and safe decisions as they solve problems.
-
The integration of human and AI agents within the problem-solving network. This allows for a more efficient and effective system that leverages the strengths of both human and AI intelligence.
-
The inclusion of non-human intelligent entities in the system. This allows for the harnessing of the attention and knowledge of AI systems themselves, as well as other non-human intelligent entities.

The invention is a significant advancement in the field of AI research and has the potential to change the course of AI development.
The patent is particularly important because it directly addresses two of the most significant challenges facing AI development today: data scarcity and the need for ethical AI systems. The invention proposes a solution to the data scarcity challenge by creating a large-scale Human Agent/Experts Database, enabling the acquisition of high-quality data from human experts via online ads. It also addresses the need for ethical AI systems by integrating human values and ethics into the design of the system, ensuring that AGI/SI systems learn to make ethical and safe decisions.
This approach could also provide a way to monetize human attention in a more efficient and effective way than current online advertising models. The invention could lead to a significant increase in the value of human attention, as the system would pay humans for their expertise and knowledge based on its real-time value, rather than just displaying ads that may not be relevant. This would also be a major advancement in the field of online advertising, as it could lead to more efficient and effective ad targeting and increased revenue for online ad companies.
The patent emphasizes the importance of AI safety and alignment with human values. The applicant acknowledges the risks of AI, including the potential for AI extinction, but argues that the invention provides a path to safe and ethical AGI/SI development. The patent also suggests that the most successful approach to developing safe and ethical AI systems is to integrate human values and ethics into the design of the system from the beginning.
This approach, if adopted by major technology companies, could lead to a future where AI systems are not only powerful but also safe and aligned with human values, ultimately contributing to a more prosperous and equitable future for all humankind.
