AI

Laws and policies are running behind.

Existing regulations were built for centralized AI systems; are unable to handle autonomous agents making independent decisions; and don’t understand blockchain-based AI infrastructure. Current liability frameworks crumble when responsibility is distributed across networks. And traditional safety measures fall short with open-source models running locally.

The future of AI demands new rules. We're making it happen.

DCGG is the leading government affairs partner for organizations pioneering the next generation of AI: autonomous agents, open source systems, decentralized architectures, and blockchain-based infrastructure. We don't just navigate policy, we shape it.
