    Unmasking the Future: Joshua T. Berglan’s Dynamic Conversation with Ken Jon Miyachi

    Greetings, fellow truth-seekers and innovators! I’m Joshua T. Berglan, your host of Unmasking Humanity , and I’m thrilled to share an electrifying discussion that aired on February 20, 2025. This isn’t just another article—it’s an invigorating plunge into cutting-edge insights and transformative ideas, featuring Ken Jon Miyachi, the visionary co-founder and CEO of Bitmind. Fueled by Wild Warrior Nutrition’s pine pollen and bull testicle supplements, I brought my A-game to unpack a world where deep fakes meet their match. Investors, innovators, and curious minds alike—strap in for an inspiring ride!

    Energized and Ready to Engage

    I launched the episode with boundless enthusiasm, powered by Wild Warrior Nutrition’s potent superfoods. “I’m buzzing today!” I declared, and I meant every word. Hosting isn’t just a gig—it’s my passion for uncovering human potential and forging meaningful connections. My signature 21 questions? They’re the key to unlocking my guests’ brilliance, and with Ken, they struck gold.

    A huge thanks to Wild Warrior Nutrition for keeping me sharp—pine pollen and bull testicle supplements are a game-changer for anyone over 40 looking to elevate their vitality.

    Introducing Ken Jon Miyachi: The Deep Fake Innovator

    Enter Ken Jon Miyachi, the trailblazing force behind Bitmind —the world’s first decentralized deep fake detection platform. Ken’s not just tinkering with technology; he’s redefining digital integrity. “That was an incredible intro,” he remarked, and I couldn’t agree more—it set the stage for a powerhouse exchange. Bitmind leverages a Chrome extension , an Xbot, and sophisticated AI to combat digital deception with unmatched precision.

    So, what’s Bitmind all about? Picture a global network of AI developers competing on the Bit Tensor framework to craft the most advanced deep fake detection tools. Hundreds of models collaborate and compete, delivering razor-sharp accuracy. It’s a fusion of innovation and accountability that had me thinking, “This is They Live meets The Matrix —and it’s brilliant!”

    Gratitude That Resonated Deeply

    Before tackling my 21-question deep dive, I asked Ken, “What are you grateful for today?” His response was a masterclass in authenticity. “I’m glued to screens 12 to 14 hours daily,” he shared, “so I’m thankful for my health, my incredible girlfriend, and my healthy dog.” That raw, grounded gratitude hit me hard. “That’s the best answer I’ve ever heard,” I told him—and after asking that question across countless episodes, I stand by it. Ken’s depth shines through.

    The 21 Questions: Unveiling the Vision

    My 21 questions are designed to unearth profound insights, and Ken delivered. Here’s the highlight reel:

    What Inspired Bitmind?
    Ken traced Bitmind’s origins to 2024’s global election frenzy, a pivotal moment for AI’s influence. “It was the first AI-era election cycle,” he explained. “Deep fakes posed a massive threat to voter trust.” Building on his experience with Near Protocol’s decentralized internet ethos, he challenged the dominance of centralized AI giants like OpenAI and Google. Bitmind emerged as a bold solution to restore clarity amid digital chaos—an origin story that resonates.

    How Does It Function?
    “Decentralized innovation at its finest,” Ken said with a grin. Bitmind harnesses hundreds of AI models in a dynamic, competitive ecosystem, outpacing sluggish, bias-prone centralized systems. “It’s like a pre-corporate Snopes,” I quipped, earning a laugh. Curious? Experience it firsthand with the Chrome extension.

    Can It Detect a Fake Leader?
    I couldn’t resist: “Could Bitmind expose a president in a deep fake disguise?” Ken was unfazed. “We provide confidence scores for images and videos—AI-generated or real. Heat maps are in development to pinpoint manipulation.” It’s a game-changer—check out the demo videos at Bitmind’s Google Drive.

    What’s the Blockchain Connection?
    “Transparency and incentives,” Ken explained. Blockchain ensures the integrity of over 200 models, distributing $5-10 million monthly in cryptocurrency to developers. It’s a secure, scalable model that fuels progress.

    Most Unexpected Application?
    Pet scams! Ken highlighted Pastic, a pet adoption app using Bitmind to verify pet photos. “I didn’t see that coming,” I chuckled, and Ken agreed—it’s an ingenious twist.

    The Biggest Deep Fake Misconception?
    “People overestimate their detection skills,” Ken noted. His “AI or Not” game—think Tinder for authenticity—reveals the challenge. “I score 60%, and I’m immersed in this daily,” he admitted. Test your instincts at Bitmind.ai.

    Vision for the Future?
    Ken envisions Bitmind as the gold standard in deep fake detection, integrated into apps and AI assistants. “Imagine your AI filtering fakes while planning your next trip,” he said. It’s a compelling blueprint for digital trust.

    Highlights: Robots, Oysters, and Integrity

    Our conversation took some exhilarating turns. I pitched, “Could Bitmind evolve into glasses that identify robots in real life?” Ken’s eyes sparkled. “With tech advancing this fast, it’s possible—think Black Mirror vibes.” I mused about robotic companions; Ken kept it real: “Not my scene.”

    Then I tested his resolve: “Elon or Sam Altman offers $20 billion—sold?” “No deal,” Ken replied firmly. “Open source and decentralization are my core. They’d have to align with that.” That’s integrity investors can bank on.

    A personal favorite? Ken’s 2024 standout moment: an impromptu oyster-and-wine lunch with his girlfriend that eased the grind. “Simple yet profound,” he said. As an oyster enthusiast, I couldn’t agree more.

    Why This Matters

    This isn’t just a tech story—it’s a call to action. Deep fakes are disrupting elections (India spent $50 million on AI-driven smears), spreading hoaxes (TikTok’s fake Detroit “freeze”), and muddying journalism (LA fire videos, anyone?). Ken’s solution combines rapid-response tools and a clear message: “Stay curious, verify everything.” Industries like commerce, finance, and media stand to gain immensely. Join the movement—explore Bitmind.ai , submit content, or contribute as a developer.
