Dacoco, the group behind the Alien Worlds Web3 metaverse, announced a collaboration with renowned science fiction author Kevin J. Anderson, known for works such as Star Wars, Dune and Saga of the Seven Suns.
The collaboration introduces AI-driven tokenized storytelling, referred to as the “Large Lore Model,” a concept merging the potency of AI with the global community’s creative prowess, all governed through decentralized on-chain mechanisms. With over nine billion plays in Alien Worlds, this initiative will establish the largest AI system governed by decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs within the game, controlled by players) at scale.
The innovative storytelling paradigm aims to amplify and expand the rich lore created by Anderson, co-author of the Dune Prequel series, through global community contributions. Empowered by advanced AI tools, the decentralized community can utilize this robust lore foundation to collaboratively build Alien Worlds games, media, and more.
Saro McKenna, cofounder of Alien Worlds, said in an interview with GamesBeat that the critical role this initiative plays at the intersection of AI and media, particularly in light of recent Hollywood writers’ strikes.

“We’re at a crucial juncture where AI and media intersect, and we’re dedicated to preserving creator integrity while unlocking the vast potential of AI. By transparently governing our AI models through on-chain communities, we’re uniquely positioned to navigate this intersection of technology and storytelling,” McKenna said.
McKenna added, “With Kevin J. Anderson’s masterful storytelling as our foundation, the community has a dual opportunity – they can appreciate and integrate the literary contributions of giants like Anderson and simultaneously harness the formidable power of AI, along with the imaginative contributions of participants across the globe.”
In the expansive realm of Alien Worlds, six planetary DAOs compete for Trilium tokens, playing a pivotal role in governance decisions and AI-assisted content management for the ever-growing metaverse enjoyed by countless participants.
While AI offers unparalleled efficiency, its integration raises concerns about potential misuse. Dacoco addresses these challenges by leveraging blockchain technology to explore how communities can ensure authenticity, transparency, and proper attribution of training data. In doing so, Alien Worlds pioneers the world’s largest decentralized AI management system.
