Ram Kumar on AGI, Specialized Intelligence, and Agent Infrastructure

Now that the Crypto AI peak of inflated expectations has passed, what’s actually built to last?

In today's episode, we are looking at the real infrastructure needed for long-term AI projects.

We sit down with Ram Kumar of OpenLedger to explore how their team is building AI that actually understands crypto, not just slapping ChatGPT onto existing apps. OpenLedger is designing intelligence that’s native to DeFi and blockchain, not retrofitted for it.

This shift from generic AI to systems that truly grasp DeFi mechanics and blockchain architecture isn’t just a nice-to-have. It’s a necessity. And it opens the door for something bigger: specialized AI agents that collaborate with each other in real time.

Let's jump in.
