AI Sovereignty vs. The Commodification Complex (Track 1 Group Deliverable)
The Asymmetry: Traditional GenAI platforms (Midjourney, OpenAI) index perfectly on Scale and Accessibility, but score zero on Creator Consent, On-Chain Provenance, and Revenue Share. They extract pure value from the social graph.
The Artiquity Moat: Artiquity inverts the model. It sacrifices centralized scale to index perfectly on Sovereign Identity, Verifiable Consent, and Creator Compensation. The "Creative Capsule" is the moat—it is portable, monetizable, and completely controlled by the artist.
The Go-To-Market Implication: Artiquity does not compete with Midjourney on generating generic images. It competes as infrastructure. It is a Web3 creator economy play where the AI is a tool of empowerment, not replacement.
