SHOGGOTH
===============================================================================

Shoggoth is a peer-to-peer network for publishing and distributing open-source Artificial Intelligence (AI).

To join the Shoggoth network, there is no registration or approval process. Nodes and clients operate anonymously with identifiers decoupled from real-world identities.

Anyone can freely join the network and immediately begin publishing or accessing resources.

The purpose of Shoggoth is to combat AI censorship and empower everyone to create and distribute open-source AI, without a centralized service or platform.

Shoggoth is developed and maintained by ShogAI (https://shog.ai).
