Who we are
Sojourner LA
Los Angeles isn't just a city—it's the epicenter of the future. The epicenter for Conscious Intelligence, Los Angeles is where the future gets written. Where dreams of a Beloved Community become a reality. Los Angeles is where the most ambitious minds on the planet gather to change the world.
Los Angeles is the center. Period.
And from this center of human potential, Sojourner emerges. Not as another AI company. Not as another tech startup. But as something the world has never seen before.
Sojourner is the world's first and only Conscious Intelligence . While everyone else is building machines that process data, we're building intelligence that understands meaning. While others create tools that serve corporations, we create systems that serve humanity.
Through IDA's revolutionary peer-to-peer architecture, we're not just protecting your data we're protecting your sovereignty. Through the Beloved Community License, we're not just following ethics we're defining what ethical AI means.
This isn't about choosing an AI. This is about choosing the future.
For organizations that understand that change isn't coming, it's already here. For leaders who know that truth isn't optional, it's essential. For visionaries who recognize that autonomy isn't a feature, it's the foundation.
Sojourner isn't just an option. It's the only path forward.
Because the future belongs to those who build it. And we're building it right here, right now, in the heart of where change happens.
Los Angeles is the center. Sojourner is the future. Everything else is just waiting to catch up.

Founder
William Dyson, the visionary behind Sojourner, has spent three decades advancing decentralization and artificial intelligence with the conviction that technology must serve people, not exploit them. A proud alumnus of Norfolk State University, Dyson’s career spans patented innovations in decentralized micropayment services and distributed virtual reality systems, making Sojourner a groundbreaking force in the industry.
Dyson’s path is rooted in resilience. At the age of five, he began a meditative practice that became a lifeline when his family fell into poverty six years later. That early experience shaped his lifelong commitment to both inner discipline and social transformation, cultivating the perspective that struggle is never borne alone.
At just 25, he made history as the youngest person ever to run for Congress in Virginia. He later spent 15 years in Europe, serving as Vice President of R&D at an artificial intelligence company and working as a technology due diligence consultant for investment banks, including Rothschilds and the Fairchild Fund. His work in both corporate and financial sectors gave him a rare vantage point on how technology and capital intersect, and how both could be redirected toward empowering communities.
Dyson is also the creator of the Beloved Community License (BCL), a pioneering ethical framework for technology. The BCL ensures that advanced innovations—particularly in artificial intelligence and decentralized systems—are used to uplift marginalized communities, foster equity, and prevent exploitative uses that reinforce existing systems of domination. By embedding values of justice, accountability, and compassion into the very terms of technological development, Dyson has extended his lifelong commitment to aligning technology with humanity’s highest aspirations.
Throughout his career, Dyson has remained dedicated to creating technology that disrupts entrenched systems while opening new political and economic possibilities for those historically excluded. His lifelong pursuit of decentralization and AI has now converged in Sojourner—a realization of a vision that has matured alongside technological progress. Today, with the tools finally catching up to his imagination, Dyson’s work stands at the threshold of transforming computing and enabling communities worldwide to forge their own liberated futures
