🤖 AI Delegates Tested
Researchers used Nouns DAO as a testing ground for AI governance, creating LLM delegates that processed over 500 real proposals with full treasury context. The experiment revealed key insights: - **AI can be programmed with specific "vibes"** and decision-making patterns - **Human bias becomes visible** when compared to AI voting patterns - **DAO governance stress-testing** shows how automated systems might handle real decisions The study used steerable AI delegates that could adapt their voting behavior, providing a glimpse into how DAOs might operate with AI participation.

Nouns DAO Funds School Rebuild in Uganda
In a notable example of web3's real-world impact, @davinoyesigye successfully leveraged the Nouns DAO ecosystem to fund the reconstruction of his elementary school in Uganda. This project demonstrates how decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) can facilitate direct community-driven philanthropy and infrastructure development in underserved regions. Key Points: - Local initiative led by community member - Direct funding through Nouns DAO - Educational infrastructure improvement - Successful cross-border implementation This case study shows the practical application of web3 governance for social good.
