# Introduction to FLock.io

FLock.io seeks to decentralise training and [value alignment](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reinforcement_learning_from_human_feedback). We ensure that AI objectives match the public’s ethics and societal aims, that decision-making falls to communities, and that usefulness is a top priority.

FLock knocks down barriers impeding participation in the ecosystem. We allow developers to provide models, data, or compute in a modular way. The result: a plethora of fit-for-purpose models created by, for, and under the stewardship of the communities.

Our incentivised platform democratises AI agent training, fine-tuning and inferencing. It halts user data collection, and enables equitable distribution of rewards and widespread governance.

Leveraging blockchain technology and AI, FLock provides a powerful environment for dealing with large datasets.&#x20;

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.flock.io/what-is-flock/introduction-to-flock.io.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `build a script that syncs our docs to a CMS` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
