INTELLIGENT TECHNOLOGY: SOFTWARE

The funding of up to US $ 1 million will support software development to incorporate Unanimous’ Hyperchat AI technology into Microsoft Teams to optimize large-scale communication, collaboration and collective intelligence across very large organizations.

Modeled on the biological principle of swarm intelligence, Hyperchat AI employs a swarm of AI agents that enable large, networked teams( 20 to 250 members) to hold productive real-time conversations by text, voice or video conference. Using this patented agentic technology, teams of unprecedented size can collaborate conversationally in real time to share information, assess risks, debate alternatives, brainstorm ideas, prioritize options and converge on optimized solutions.

Despite advancements in real-time messaging and video conferencing over the last decade, productive conversations generally fall apart in groups larger than 8 to 10 people. Hyperchat AI overcomes this longstanding problem, enabling groups of potentially any size to engage in productive real-time discussions that leverage their combined knowledge, wisdom and insight.

Hyperchat AI technology has been validated through a series of rigorous studies performed with researchers at Carnegie Mellon University. These studies show that real-time conversations using Hyperchat AI make large teams more effective and efficient and significantly amplify the accuracy and intelligence of the conclusions reached.

Hyperchat technology is currently available in a cloudbased platform from Unanimous AI called Thinkscape, already used by large corporations and organizations around the world. By integrating the technology directly into Microsoft Teams, Hyperchat AI will be accessible at scale across the US Air Force.

“ While most AI companies are rushing to replace people, Unanimous AI has spent years optimizing how AI can weave human teams into superintelligent systems,” said Dr. Louis Rosenberg, CEO and Chief Scientist of Unanimous AI.“ Our new Hyperchat AI technology uses a swarm of AI agents to optimally interconnect large teams through natural real-time discussions, debates, brainstorms and deliberations, leading to smarter, faster and more accurate outcomes.”

Hyperchat AI works by dividing a large group into parallel subgroups, each sized for thoughtful deliberation. The patented Hyperchat AI engine then uses a dynamic network of Conversational Surrogate AI Agents to intelligently share content among the subgroups in real time. This allows human expertise, insight and situational awareness to rapidly propagate across the network, enabling distributed teams of specialists, stakeholders and subject-matter experts to efficiently converge on smarter, faster and more accurate solutions.

“ Hyperchat AI technology is a breakthrough in collaboration, communication and collective intelligence,” said David Baltaxe, President of Unanimous AI.“ We are excited for the opportunity to work with the US Air Force to build Hyperchat AI into Microsoft Teams deployments. This will enable large, distributed teams to solve critical problems more effectively. Our goal is to empower large organizations to collaborate so seamlessly, they become a Collective Superintelligence.” p
