grateful to @RamshreyasR for correcting me on this prediction. it seems vector embedding is already on the way out . Googles gemini now has 2 million tokens as context window, which is around 6000 pages! . so we no longer need long term memory (vector embedding) & short term.
Thanks to @chillgates_ , I'm down the šhole of vector embedding tools like @milvusio , @trychroma & @pinecone . They increase LLMs context window by recording the essence of a data point & placing similar queries near each other. Anyone tried them out?.

I honestly prefer breakout sessions at ethcc to simply attending talks or doing meetings. the Ethereum funding forum was like attending a team retreat, full day of intense workš
. Here are 5 takeaways;. 1. many research funders have what's called a "TRL" or technology readiness.

popup cities really need to solve for how much of the funding is directed to hotels š. for eg @zuitzerland, ZuGeorgia, @zuthailand , @ZuGramaIndia etc go on for ~3-6 weeks but only allow residents with a room to attend. Easily $100-200k to those hotels, with maybe only ~30% of

Excited to share the roadmap for deep funding which we drew up in Berlin. To expand public goods outside it's narrow niche, we need to;. 1. Create a way for people to make and lose money. 2. Use the efficiency of the market (bots, arbitrage, etc). Do swing by if you're in ethcc!.
What if ecosystems could fund the most impactful projects not by voting, but by trading their future value? .Meet @Deep_Funding at @EthCC and learn how market-based mechanisms, AI agents, and prediction markets allow for the *trading* of public goods projects. š Governance &

My main takeaway from this is we need to clearly separate out grants from mutually beneficial service contracts. Grants = what gitcoin, octant, ENS public goods etc do to help the ecosystem. Service contracts = integrating your app into someone else's product or chain to help.
Everybody wants more apps, wants crypto to be usable and to reach retail. Yet nobody wants to fund apps.
