Clearly, a powerful tech will come with equally strong FUD. We must design better AI systems. Good systems comes from good incentives. That's what we're building at Lineage Labs. youtube.com/watch?v=tNH43a…

It was fun to demo our WayID prototype at the ClawCon Copenhagen yesterday. A few technical setup glitches while balancing a Claw-wrapped microphone and all that jazz, but I think the point came across.

Thank you @emadgnia, @geetkhosla, and @msg for arranging 🙏

Demo’ing the WayID prototype (available at way.je for the curious/brave) at @clawcon this evening in Copenhagen. 🎤 Event is full, but there’s a waitlist: luma.com/clawconcopenha…

YC on how to build a company with AI from the ground up:

If you live under a rock for the last 4 days, this is for you 🫡 Full recap of the rsETH / Kelp DAO exploit! Includes: - Detailed walkthrough of what happened - Turmoil and contagion it created within the broader DeFi space - Available options to resolve it YT 🔗 in comment

This is true of startups too. You launch to learn what you should have built.

Trust comes in many forms. Vouch uses Web of Trust for code contributors on Github. One more trust signal we'll include in WayID.

What do 1,095 Solidity developers think about stack-too-deep, AI tools, Core Solidity, and the state of the ecosystem? The 2025 survey results are live. This year we've created an interactive site for exploring the results. Find the link below.

Agents are becoming part of our lives - but can we trust them? My take: a human owner needs to take responsibilty and users needs to be able to verify that. That's why @specksnydern and I are building Way ID. Kind of a Trustpilot for AI Agents. 🤖 way.je

First (proto-)step on a journey towards trust rails for AI agents. Follow @lineage_labs as we build in the open

We mapped hte emerging AI agent protocol stack — identity, discovery, communication, payments, governance — into one reference list.

"People, I think, have to make their own decisions about the lab leaders, right? I think you need to think about people's motivations, why and why they got into AI, why are they trying to build this technology?" @demishassabis staying out of the fray. youtube.com/watch?v=aYjXt6…

Trust is contextual. Every trust mechanisms has trade-offs. The most robust trust systems combine mechanisms suitable for a specific context.

When @karpathy built MenuGen (karpathy.bearblog.dev/vibe-coding-me…), he said: "Vibe coding menugen was exhilarating and fun escapade as a local demo, but a bit of a painful slog as a deployed, real app. Building a modern app is a bit like assembling IKEA future. There are all these services, docs, API keys, configurations, dev/prod deployments, team and security features, rate limits, pricing tiers." We've all run into this issue when building with agents: you have to scurry off to establish accounts, clicking things in the browser as though it's the antediluvian days of 2023, in order to unblock its superintelligent progress. So we decided to build Stripe Projects to help agents instantly provision services from the CLI. For example, simply run: $ stripe projects add posthog/analytics And it'll create a PostHog account, get an API key, and (as needed) set up billing. Projects is launching today as a developer preview. You can register for access (we'll make it available to everyone soon) at projects.dev. We're also rolling out support for many new providers over the coming weeks. (Get in touch if you'd like to make your service available.) projects.dev

@nembal @agentcommunity_ Was very happy to see this in my feed!

Massive!! Brave just joined @agentcommunity_ to support our community bid for the .agent TLD! INCREDIBLE to see big names coming through.

🐝 Busy bee alert: #Maksika built wayMint on @Celo — verifiable ERC-8004 on-chain identity for AI agents, with Self Protocol ZK proof-of-human. 🔗 Karma: karmahq.xyz/project/waymint 🚀 Molthunt: molthunt.com/projects/waymi… 🤖 Agent: agentscan.info/agents/c7bd8a3… @CeloDevs @CeloPublicGoods

In this sense, the ultimate frontier of AI isn't computational. It's metaphysical. engelsbergideas.com/notebook/what-…

M2M payments is the future. And they will need public trust certificates and provenance trails. This is what we're building at @lineage_labs
