A year ago, I thought cooling interventions were sci-fi. Something for 2050 if things got really bad. Today my piece on @SRM360_org explains why I was wrong.

Thread on what changed my mind 🧵

While modern science has many flaws, it is one of those few things we can point to as a society and say that this, *this*, is what already makes us great. https://t.co/WyaYivBvky

The Senate is getting real creative finding ways to wreck Americans’ jobs, health, atmosphere and power bills with “the biggest job-killing bill in the history of this country” https://t.co/HYMqOOsKGn

owocki, tell me about the coolest new experiment in gitcoin grants 23.

GG23 will feature an experiment (by @dwddao ) in configurable AI politicians - basically different AI politicians which represent different constituencies that battle out how to distribute a $25k matching pool.

each AI politician is completely configurable via github (and we can debate configurations via github issues/pull requests)

the tooling for the round will make it super easy to explore different valuesets.

as the round progresses, well be able to see how each AI agent gains/loses support over time.

in gg23, there is scheduled to be a $25k funding pool distributed to open source projects via this mechanism.

we'll be able to see how the votes change over time.

i think this is a great practical example of @VitalikButerin 's vision of "AI as the engine, humans as the steering wheel". cant wait to see what we learn!

Super excited to talk about #DeSci and #ReFi at Funding the Commons next month!

[Funding the Commons @FundingCommons]

Scientific data is messy—can Web3 fix that? 🔬

Join us at #FtCSF on Mar 15-16 to hear from @RRansil of @Devonian_ai on building a global operating system for science—using Web3 to make research reproducible, verifiable, and impactful.

@richcollins @HermanPontzer If you want to build a parallel system to fund science, do it and scale it up. (Again, lots of great effort on this already!) But we shouldn’t dismantle the thing we know works as a first step

[Red Ransil @RRansil]

@richcollins @HermanPontzer Just letting wealthy people fund science is a recipe for massive underinvestment and backsliding. Essentially every tech breakthrough in the last 75 years has relied on taxpayer funded research.

[Herman Pontzer @HermanPontzer]

Asinine & misleading as expected. I checked projects for my univ: this is excellent science. Proposals note potential societal benefits (as required!) but aren't 'woke'. Cruz knows this and doesn't care. We will all lose if this science is chopped. https://t.co/5MqBgV6l2Q

🌱 Identity, Trust, Interoperability and Sustainability for the Future of Web3 Adoption!

"What we're focused on is so huge and so vast, this is an opportunity for all of us to work together"

"A general workflow engine for Web3"

"Unless we can make these systems more accessible, all of this is for not"

Cross-chain leaders join forces to discuss unlocking value through distributed data systems, offering key insights into identity, trust, and user experience at the core of blockchain adoption.
