AI Alliance releases AI-powered programming language and industrial AI agent framework

AI Alliance, a global non-profit consortium dedicated to open-source AI innovation, announced Dana, a new open-source AI-powered programming language, and the OpenDXA agent framework for industrial AI. The non-profit also launched AI Alliance Japan, a new initiative to support AI sovereignty and industrial AI in Japan, and welcomed three new Japanese members: Mitsubishi Electric, National Institute of Informatics, and SAKURA internet Inc.

Dana and OpenDXA
Dana, the world's first AI-powered programming language, enables intent-driven development where users can describe what they want to build, and the language handles implementation.

"We asked: What if an AI-powered programming language could understand what you're trying to accomplish?" said Christopher Nguyen, CEO and Founder of Aitomatic and creator of Dana. "This is an evolution from AI-assisted coding to AI-native programming—a fundamental shift in how software gets built."

OpenDXA, the new open-source agent framework, is the first built for complex industrial AI agent systems that need to handle highly specialized domain data, processes and workflows, while working hand-in-hand with engineers and subject matter experts.

Dana and OpenDXA are both open, collaborative efforts of AI Alliance members, led by Aitomatic. Unlike other popular frameworks that create "black box" systems, together these projects deliver explainable AI and automatic prompt optimization through fault-tolerant yet deterministic systems with domain-expert meta agents.

AI Alliance Japan
AI Alliance Japan is a new regional working group focused on advancing open research and open-source AI in Japan with the ability to leverage technical and advocacy support from AI Alliance members globally. Its initial members include Aitomatic, IBM, JSR, NEC, Panasonic, Red Hat, Mitsubishi Electric, National Institute of Informatics, and SAKURA internet Inc.

AI Alliance Japan will drive the open development of sovereign AI capabilities that address Japan-specific cultural and economic context with particular focus on AI agents, data, models and evaluation. The group will also collaborate to advance open-source AI research and development for industrial applications such as manufacturing, semiconductors, shipping and navigation, where reliable, accurate, domain-enriched AI systems are essential to success.

LLM-jp, an open-source national sovereign LLM project led by National Institute of Informatics, will be one of the first projects supported by AI Alliance Japan.
