The Intersection of AI & Blockchain From Infrastructure to Policy

Welcome to this episode of The Edge of Show recorded live at the Future of Money, Governance, and the Law (FOMGL) event in Washington, D.C. In this conversation, Josh Kriger is joined by Josh Lawler, Cathy Hackl, Nicholas Zaldastani, and Janet Adams as they unpack the global race toward artificial general intelligence (AGI) and why decentralization may be the key to building ethical, transparent, and inclusive AI systems.

The discussion dives into agentic AI, decentralized infrastructure, trust networks, data ownership, deepfakes, humanoid robotics, and the growing risks of centralized control. From real-world AI governance challenges to the role blockchain can play in accountability and verification, this episode cuts through the hype and focuses on what actually needs to be built and fixed.

If you’re building, investing, or simply trying to understand where AI and Web3 are heading next, this conversation offers clear insights from leaders working at the edge of innovation.
