I have been looking into how AI projects are funding developers. And out of the 29 programs I checked, only 10 give grants. Out of the 29 programs I checked, only 10 give grants. The rest give credits, compute or hackathon prizes. And out of those 10, 7 are crypto foundations. Put together an index here: grantsradar.dev/

This would be interesting if it actually works. His idea: use AI to reverse-engineer the products we use every day, build free, open-source alternatives, and cut into those companies’ revenue. But two problems I foresee: 1. AI might make building these alternatives easier, but who pays to maintain the open source software? 2. Coordination. How do you get millions of people to trust a free alternative and switch to it?

at this point are there people who don’t use AI like everyday? i’m surprised to see my mum using the meta AI frequently on whatsapp

it’s been a while since a fintech app got me this curious, and i’ve been excited to try Aave App. thanks @parisrouz for the invite. as a kenyan, a lot of the savings products i’ve seen win by solving the behavioural side of saving, through features like goal savings, locking savings or group/chama savings. what interests me about Aave App is almost the opposite. my money stays accessible, but 6.25% yield on dollar savings is hard to find locally, and that alone is a pretty good incentive for me to leave my savings there.

Mines are mostly: - less mouthful - practical - direct and conscise
Half my prompts are just: - Don’t sound like AI - Simpler - More human - No
