About Protogon Research

Protogon Research builds AI models with a deep understanding of the world, and monetizes them through proprietary trading. Our long-term goal is to build superintelligence, which we believe will be the most transformative invention of the 21st century. We believe that trading is a unique test-bed to develop highly intelligent AI systems. Focusing on trading provides us with several key advantages over other approaches. We can: - Develop proprietary models using proprietary datasets, which helps us avoid the race-to-the-bottom other AI companies are stuck in. - Rapidly translate technological improvements into increased revenue. - Focus on building innovative systems without the need for sales, marketing, customer support, or business development. - Build models optimized for a true understanding of the world, rather than simply replicating human behavior or generating superficially pleasing outputs.
