Thank you. Hello, hello, hello, Greg.
I don't know what happened there.
That was not good, huh?
Hey, Greg, can you hear me?
Oh, yeah, I can hear you.
Am I coming through clear?
Oh, you're, I can hear you loud and clear.
Okay, great.
Because for whatever reason, my headset is kaput.
So we see, I see Jennifer.
I wonder if we can, Yeah, there she goes.
She just requested to speak.
Okay, MetaRides.
Can you do thumbs up if this is Hermie?
Is this the Hermie that's on MetaRise or is it Craig?
Thank you for attending.
We really appreciate that.
So Jennifer, I'm just going to give everybody a few minutes since we got rugged before we started.
I know we had a bunch of people sign up and we're trying to tweet.
I don't know if you guys can retweet just to let everybody know that we had to move to this new link.
I'll make sure our team retweets the new link.
Thanks, Sandy.
Yeah, thank you, Jennifer.
Can't wait to chat with you.
Hey, guys, we are we're going to be starting here in just a few minutes. You guys are the super smart ones because you saw that we got rugged on our old link and we're now here on
our new link. If everybody can kind of tweet and retweet that this is what we're getting ready to
do right now is go live on the spaces with rain and hear about their latest announcements.
That would be amazing. And we'll get started in just a few minutes
so just give us a little bit of time great to see some of you guys coming in
And I hope everybody's getting ready for a great weekend.
I cannot wait.
I've got a full and packed day, but can't wait to get started.
Jennifer, anything you're doing that's kind of super fun for the weekend?
I am out in the Hamptons, which is so nice.
I've been out here for two weeks.
So we've been so, so busy with our launch
that it's been nice to have kind of an outdoor space
and be out of the city,
even though I've been kind of working around the clock,
but definitely looking forward to the weekend
and have a few fun things going on out east.
Oh, that's great.
I'm actually here visiting my parents in North Carolina from Arizona,
and I am on a lake called Lake Norman.
And, Jennifer, I've been trying to post some pictures.
Was it last night or the night before?
We had this amazing killer sunset.
I'll pin it up here so you guys can just see it.
Lake Norman is the largest lake,
largest man-made lake, sorry, let me clarify, largest land, man-made lake in the southeast,
and it's just spectacular. So the good thing is, again, I'm working, working, working, but
I'm also able to take a peek at this beautiful sunset. I just posted it up there.
Isn't that spectacular?
That's no filters, no AI, just 110% all about the nature that's out there.
So anyway, I think it's kind of cool.
We'll just give it a couple more minutes.
And then for everybody here, we'll get going here in just a few minutes.
Sorry, we got rugged before we even started, which is a shame because we had a really good group signed
up we're trying to get everybody over so that everybody knows that we're on the new link
but maybe we'll just give it a couple more minutes Jennifer is that okay or do you want to go ahead
and jump in looks like we lost them it does it looks like we lost them.
It looks like we lost Jennifer.
Oh, there's Jennifer.
She now has to be invited back up.
I wonder if it's just not a good day for Twitter spaces.
I don't know.
Let's see.
We'll see if we can get Jennifer back up.
Can you, I guess I can too.
Jennifer, if you, there you go.
Jennifer L. There you go.
Jennifer L. So if people are trickling in, I think we were posting the new link on our handle
We were posting the new link on our handle as well.
But yes, I believe we just did.
Okay, great.
Yeah, we'll get going in here in just a few minutes.
So for those of you who were smart and saw the new link and everything, you guys can get jumped in here really, really, really fast as well.
So let's see here. We have a lot
of really great stuff that we're going to go through. Great to see Wyatt in here too.
We'll just get started. Maybe we'll just give it a few more minutes and then we'll get going.
But Jennifer, why don't you tell us while we're waiting, just a little bit about, you know,
your role and what you're doing at RAINN. Sure, sure. Yes. So I am Jennifer Booz and I am leading
partnerships and business development and ecosystem growth for RAINNmaker. I've been with the company for about 1.3 years,
which is pretty crazy.
And Rainmaker is an amazing platform.
We're building, it's a decentralized AI platform
where humans are kind of the backbone of intelligence. So from day one
and since I've started, you know, our goal has really been to reward users for their real world
contributions to AI. So whether that's through training data and labeling data or validating the work and output of agents or other validators on our network, or even just
providing feedback loops on the data contributions that are happening across the platform.
Our main goal is to reward users and incentivize them for participating in contributing to AI. So we're really excited to be speaking with Sandy
and the Unstoppable Domains team.
We have, we launched, it was actually one of the first things
I did when I started with Rainmaker was to launch
the Rain domain because we wanted to allow for all
the contributors in our network to have kind of this portable identity layer.
And it's something that we see as really critical to reputation.
So we have kind of this AI reputation scoring mechanism.
And having that kind of portable identity is really important as we think about things like owning your reputation and establishing
trust and having kind of long-term ownership in this new AI economy. So really excited to be here
speaking with Sandy and team today. That is awesome. And I think I'm going to go ahead and
get started because we're getting a few more folks that are coming in. And I think I'm going to go ahead and get started because we're getting a few more folks that are coming in. And I think I'm going to go ahead and start, Jennifer, and then we'll just take the new folks as they come.
platform. We represent that digital identity as a domain and that provides users the full
capability to pay with crypto, to do an encrypted chat, to have their gamer handle. And at the same
time, we've expanded as well into tokenization of domains for businesses, better known as DNS domains, like a .com.
We now tokenize .com, .ai, .io, and all tokenization means is we place that domain and that information
about the company on chain.
So now we have people which are on chain with the Web3 domains.
We've got companies on chain with .com and .ai, .io, et cetera.
And we've also recently, and Jennifer, you would love this,
we've also been providing domain names to AI agents,
especially those with crypto wallet.
So we've worked with Synergistics.
We did a .twin with them for their agents that are tellers and risk management folks. They each have their own domain as an identity for that agent. We worked with CGAI for dot CGAI to talk about protecting your images and your pictures. And then we also launched with dot Miku, the very first AI agent, fashion agent with an identity too.
I didn't know if you knew that, Jennifer, but we've been recently seeing this opportunity around AI agents too.
That's amazing.
And we'll have to make sure that we are coordinating efforts with Chief Rain, who is our chief agent on the Rainmaker platform, because I think that's a really interesting use
case for the technology. Yeah, me too. And you know what, Jennifer, if you asked me like six
months ago, would you be doing digital identities for AI agents? I would have said, what? But it's
kind of interesting now, you know, to see all the companies out there who now have agents that own their own
wallets. And of course, if you own your own wallet, the easiest way to leverage that would be with a
digital identity or a domain to unlock that as well. But tell me a little bit first, just to get
the audience up to speed, Jennifer, you talked about Rainmaker and you talked about decentralized AI. I think most people today understand AI
to some extent, but what is decentralized AI?
So decentralized AI is, I guess we can kind of take a step back here. I'm looking at the
I'm looking at the people in this chat because sometimes I have to take a step back and think through who I'm speaking to when we talk about such specific things.
But essentially, decentralized AI is what we've been kind of developing where there's no single owner.
So instead of having, you know,
AI models that are trained and owned
and monetized by one big tech company,
decentralized AI allows for many independent contributors,
including humans and agents,
to participate in the model development and
kind of participate throughout the AI lifecycle. So when we talk about decentralized AI in the
context of what we're building here at Rainmaker, it's about training data and model parameters and even compute resources that are spread across
many different nodes and networks.
So kind of avoiding the reliance on centralized entities or servers.
And so that's kind of the core behind decentralized AI.
It's, you know, the development and kind of the governance of AI systems across distributed
networks rather than relying on just, you know, one centralized entity like an open
AI to be training and kind of contributing to the output of the models.
And this has been such a hot growing area.
A lot of new investment is going into decentralized AI
because the combination of blockchain with AI
really fills a lot of the gaps with the trust factor
and making sure things are more secure. And I think providing
that, you know, trusted verification as well. So I think it's really a powerful, powerful concept.
It's kind of just at the beginning phases, even though we've been kind of talking about it.
But I do think that it's going to become one of the hottest topics that's out there.
become one of the hottest topics that's out there. And because you have that, we also have,
you know, this identity as well. And I'm just curious, Jennifer, how do you see owning that
digital identity unlock value in your ecosystems there at Rainmaker? Yeah, so identity is definitely super important to us as we kind of think about the AI with the context of it's only as good as the people that are building it and the people that are behind it.
And right now, you know, a lot of the contributors and what's being developed behind the scenes, there isn't a lot of visibility
into that.
And so what we're doing and why decentralized identity matters for AI and Web3 contributors
is it provides an ability for us to create an identity for a user that's verifiable and user controlled.
So we're empowering users by incentivizing them to be an additional contributor to the development of the AI.
And so identity definitely is really important.
And I think having that as something that we're doing with Unstoppable is important
because with these RAIN domains, the contributors to our network aren't just earning rewards.
They're actually,
we've developed this AI reputation score. So the users can build a reputation tied to their own
digital identity. And then that reputation travels with them across apps and ecosystems and agents.
And it's kind of like this passport for the AI economy and so we really strongly believe that um the the the higher
your contribution to the network um and to developing ai models and and participating there
you should be directly um incentivized and rewarded for that. So establishing an identity or sorry, a reputation score that's
tied to an individual user's identity is an important kind of step and an anchor where,
you know, the contributions can be tied to your identity. And as an individual user, you can, you know, be recognized and have,
you know, contributions be rewarded. Yeah, I think there's a lot to unpack there.
So for, I see a lot, and thank you, Johan's back on, MetaRise is back on. I see our, the Domainer
that's back on. Thank you guys for coming in on. I see the domainer that's back on.
Thank you guys for coming in.
These are a lot of the whales, Jennifer, from our ecosystem.
So they're used to, you know, that domain also, you know, being able to be used to pay
in crypto.
In fact, I love to tell the story that when I went to Vegas, I went into a store, I had spilled tea all over my shirt.
So I needed to buy a new shirt.
And I went in and I saw that they took crypto.
And so I tried it out.
I was able to pay with my shirt with crypto from my domain, which was freaking cool, I thought.
So you can do that, obviously.
You can chat with people in an encrypted chat, which I do cool, I thought. So you can do that, obviously. You can chat with
people in an encrypted chat, which I do with our whales all the time. You can use it, you know,
for your gaming tag. You can use it for so many things. But now what you're talking about is
around, you know, rewards and reputation. You have some of that already in Unstoppable, but
RAINN kind of takes that to the next level too. Do you want to explain
a little bit more about rewards routing with your domain in RAINMAKER?
Yes, yes. So that's a funny story. I have also had kind of a similar experience at a conference where I've spilled tea all over my outfit and had to.
But we digress. We digress.
So so we OK, so how I guess to take one kind of step back, because I want to paint like the macro picture here for the people that just joined.
So we just launched Train, which is our multimodal AI validation engine.
And that's designed to put humans back in the loop.
And it's transparent and traceable and rewarding.
rewarding. So, you know, developers or enterprises can send AI generated outputs like video clips or
images or text into the train engine. And then we have our human validators in the app. And we have
over 500,000 right now. We imagine that this will definitely expand exponentially as we're really
pushing forward and all the launch announcements that
we've made this week. But within the app, users are providing feedback, they're flagging,
you know, edge cases, they're making corrections, things like that. And then that data
is then used to train and fine tune and kind of verify the models on the back end.
And so kind of where we're taking it to the next level.
And I think to answer your broader question is we're not just, you know,
capturing that feedback, we're logging it on chain.
And then we're routing rewards directly to your RAIN domain.
And then using that to build the verifiable AI reputation. So when you complete a
task, your identity as a contributor is tied to your .RAIN domain and then RAIN tokens are routed
to your domain-linked wallet. And as that occurs, as I kind of alluded to earlier,
was your validator score and your AI reputation
will increase based on the RAIN tokens
that are being routed to your domain-linked wallet.
And we envision a world where we can kind of expand
beyond the network.
And if we identify specific users
are contributing to other models
or the development of other models outside of our network, we can still reward them and enhance their quote unquote AI reputation score.
So over time, you know, your domain with Unstoppable will become this like passport of proof showing exactly how you've contributed across AI networks. So
it's like proof of feedback, proof of training, proof of human intelligence with real rewards
and reputational value is kind of what we're building here. Yeah, I think that's really
powerful for all of our, you know, all of our domain holders out there too. And I see a lot of people, you know, already recognizing the power of their RAIN domain as well. And just doing the typical rewards that we have, this just gives you like one more reason to grab that RAIN domain. We've already had over almost 3,200 RAIN domains taken so far.
Not taken, but bought, I guess I should say more clearly.
And I think that's really an impressive number.
A lot of the ICANN TLDs never make it to 3,000 domains sold.
So I think that's pretty cool.
How would you, if I wanted to talk about
dot rain domains, I'll kind of talk through, you know, if you're, if you're brand new,
let's say you're not one of our whales that are out there. And I do see a few of you. So be patient.
If you're going to go get your dot rain domain, you can go to unstoppable.com. That's one way to grab it.
Or you can go to the actual page that's just set up for RAINN, which is get.unstoppable.com
slash RAINN.
Either way, what you do is you go out there and you grab your favorite name or your favorite
gaming handle or your favorite business name, whatever you want to grab.
And then you just take it through.
You can buy it with crypto.
You can buy it with a credit card.
You can buy it with a stable coin.
And now that we've got the Genius Act approved, you could do it before, but the Genius Act
just makes it so much cooler now.
And then once you do that, you'll get your first badge with Rain.
They have a badge that's set up for one owning one domain and that enables you to now be part of the group chat with jennifer and
wyatt where they can share whatever they want to you know with our whales i share upcoming roadmaps
and i ask you guys what's going on i'm sure they're going to do something very similar. I think there's a lot of things you can do with the integration.
You can also link your wallet.
I have, I think, three of my wallets linked to one of my domains.
So I link my Bitcoin wallet.
I link my Phantom wallet for Solana.
I have my Ethereum wallet there so I can pay in multiple types of currency.
And then, of course, I've got two
reputation scores right there on the UD profile. I can look at how safe my wallet is with Webacy.
And I can look at valuations with BitCrunch as well. So all of that is available today.
And Jennifer, anything I missed that you wanted to add on the Rainmaker, the dot Rain, I guess I should say?
Anything else that you wanted to cover that you thought was really cool from a Rainmaker standpoint?
I think you covered most of the benefits of owning or holding the RAIN domain.
I agree that the 3200 is definitely really impressive.
And I think there's a lot that we can do kind of going forward
now that our token is live
and we can start to dig into things like staking bonuses that are tied to domain ownership.
We could do we have these like leaderboards.
We could do domain based leaderboards and kind of rank based rewards.
And then I think these like NFT achievement badges will continue to evolve with your AI reputation.
And I think, you know, we will look to add and layer in more community governance where the verified contributors that, you know, hold the RAIN domain can actively participate and influence in shaping our network.
So I think, you know, you nailed it, Sandy.
It's not just about kind of naming rights.
It's also an opportunity to have kind of a front row seat
to the new AI economy that we're building together here.
And yeah, I think that's kind of really the, the main benefits and things that
we can unlock, um, in partnership with, uh, unstoppable.
And I think that really elevates the game too.
So let me just pause for a second.
Um, at the end, I'm going to ask questions and Jennifer and I will be giving away three
dot reigns.
So if you ask a question, then you can request your very own dot reign as well.
So get ready with those questions as we as we kind of continue on.
Jennifer, I'm curious.
You keep talking about your announcements and you spend a lot of time on them.
Would you mind maybe sharing the top three things that you guys announced and why you're so excited about it?
Why you're working on it while you're out at the ocean there as well in the Hamptons?
Yes, I think the top.
Well, obviously, this week, it was a big week.
We launched our token and we're officially live. We listed on Kraken, which is a huge milestone to bring visibility and also just real utility to our ecosystem because the RAIN token will power the AI validation tasks, the validator rewards, and kind of the stuff that's
happening within like the app around staking and reputation mechanics. And so, you know, we have
more exchange listings in motion, but this was our foundational launch that we've kind of unlocked to drive greater utility to the users and contributors that have been with us all along.
So that was kind of the big launch there.
And then the other thing I think that's really significant is our train engine
is now live inside the rainmaker app and that's what allows enterprises um to submit ai outputs
for human in the loop validation so video is is kind of the the big sexy, splashy thing that we're doing now
because it's so important to have video that users can capture
and use to contribute to building video models.
And historically, a lot of the AI model developers
are using video assets that they don't necessarily,
or video assets that they don't necessarily have the rights to use to train those models.
And so what we're doing is kind of upending that all together and creating a network and a
mechanism in which users can capture video. Maybe it's a quest or something specific from
an enterprise where they're looking for a very unique data set or bespoke data set
in another part of the world. And it allows for users within our network to upload that video.
And then they can annotate the data within the video and they're
incentivized and rewarded with our token. And then that also kind of helps them continue
to earn more and build their reputation through that kind of verifiable contribution. So
the training, these enterprise models is kind of the next frontier
for us, I would say. And, you know, launching our token is creating utility around the points
that people were previously earning. Now there's actually value that can be accrued to those
points that they've earned. And going forward, they can earn in our, well, actually, they'll earn the points and then they can convert them to, you know, the token.
So those are kind of the, I would say, the big announcements that we have happening this week.
That is a lot.
So that's cool. And that actually kind of gives you some
sneak peeks into, you know, what might be interesting here and interesting coming,
as we're thinking about rewarding our domain holders and that sort of thing, too. So that's
really cool. And how has it gone over? What has been the reaction so far?
The reaction, I guess the one more thing that I would probably want to highlight too that was
really notable is our announcement with Google actually. So Veo,
BrainMaker is supporting the validation and training of video data for Veo, which is Google's kind of next-gen text-to-video model.
So what that means kind of in practice is the video content can, like any of the developers or enterprises that are building with Google's Veo,
will have that routed into our train system.
And that's really cool because then the users can do the rating and tagging and kind of
correcting video segments to ensure quality and accuracy and unbiased contributions and things like that. So it's a huge partnership for us
and a real enterprise use case where our human layer is kind of training and verifying and
helping improve VAIO AI video models. So that was another one. That actually happened last week,
but I would add it to the announcements of this week because it's very notable.
Yeah, I would say that would have probably been the first one that I would have brought up.
That's really, really cool.
I really like that.
Congratulations, Jennifer and team.
That's pretty powerful for sure, to be sure.
So if we think about, you know, the partnership that we have together, are there
any of those announcements, and you don't have to commit to anything, but any of those announcements
that you see really impacting folks who got a .rain domain? Yeah, I think if people have a .rain domain, they will have increased earning capabilities within our platform.
So again, that ties into having a greater AI reputation.
They have skin in the game.
They're identifying themselves as contributors to our network.
you know, identifying themselves as contributors to our network.
So we have these things that are called moon drops, where we can boost rewards monthly
that are earned. And by having a dot rain domain, we're able to increase and boost effectively
the points that you're earning on our network, which can ultimately be converted
to our token. And that is, whoops, that is really cool. I just had, let's see, can you guys still
hear me? I heard this glitchy thing happen. Jennifer and Greg, can you guys still hear me speaking or no?
I can hear you.
Okay, great.
I just wanted to make sure.
I've got some random things happening now.
So I was just kind of curious if you guys heard what I was saying.
So thank you.
It's fun when you get logged by Twitter, for sure, you know.
So, Jennifer, my next question is, I know that you guys are
doing a lot of building and you just talked about building out the intersection of AI and human
feedback. I'm curious, how do users contribute and earn in the ecosystem itself? You know,
ecosystem itself? You know, you talked a little bit about some videos, but you want to go a little
you talked a little bit about some videos, but you want to go a little bit deeper there?
bit deeper there? Yes, happy to. So right now, so when we initially kind of launched the app,
it was really just kind of built on stable diffusion models. So users could generate images,
and then they would label the images that they created and they received points and rewards for doing so.
And it's allowing for users to label and verify, you know, in example, short clips that were generated by models like Google's Veo.
And we've also launched tools that will allow for users to submit original content.
submit original content. So that's where we're seeing a lot of large enterprises
really pay attention and look at what we're doing because there's definitely a need to have
multilingual data, to have edge case video clips, very specific things that they don't have
necessarily the rights to use in training a model.
So we're kind of creating a layer that gives users incentives for participating to that.
And then it gives enterprises, you know, free and clear use of that data with the user's
permission, of course.
And that's what's helping developers fine tune their models.
And that's what contributors are compens fine tune their models. And that's what contributors
are compensated in the RAIN tokens. So I think, did that answer your question?
Yeah, I think that's, I think that's pretty powerful, especially when you've got some of
these major companies that are backing you too. It's not just video and image validation,
but it sounds like it's part of the reputation system and part of the agent training.
Is that right? Yeah. Yeah. And so to double click on that a little more, so we're working with a
lot of different, it is all about the ecosystem and kind of the network effects. And so a lot
of what I've been doing is ecosystem development around which are kind of like the best in class projects and companies in the space that we can partner with where we have shared ethos and values around human contributions to AI training and rewarding people.
So we're working with partners that range from like Sentient to Zero-G Labs.
We're using some of their tech, some of their like data availability tech within our blockchain.
We're talking and doing some really cool stuff with Sahara Labs,
which we'll hope to
have some big announcements coming out of that very soon. And so we're kind of selecting Alora
Labs is another one. And so we're kind of working with and identifying like the best of the best
DAI projects that have a shared mission. And we want to kind of unite these communities
across all of these different projects and DAI companies
because we are all kind of on this central mission together.
And so that's kind of how we're thinking
about bringing together the broader ecosystem and aligning with other
platforms and protocols and companies and projects that are aligned in that way.
And can I build my own, can I build my own like, you know, Sandy agent in your, in your
platform if I wanted to?
You could not today, but potentially with some of these other partners, like Eliza OS
is one that we've kind of done some interesting stuff with.
Virtuals is another one.
So while you can't do that necessarily directly within our network right now, what you could do and where I think we add value is,
let's say you deployed your own Sandy.Rain or Sandy agent rather,
and you wanted an enterprise wanted to use your agent or your agent was interfacing with
another enterprise, but they wanted to validate the authenticity of the output of your agent.
And so our users kind of sit between the enterprises that are licensing this data and your agent,
and they would validate the output of your agent and help refine and help improve your agent
as kind of this connected group of users that are, you know, contributing and validating
to these data sets. So yes, agents, we have our own agent,
and he's kind of his own special thing. We could probably do a separate AMA just on Chief Rain.
Yeah, for sure. Maybe he could lead it. That would be nice. But no, so yeah, what we like with agents is how can our users validate the agents?
And kind of another use case that's come up is we have brands that will come to us or even public figures that have developed like chatbots that are effectively agents that are serving as chatbots.
And they want to make sure that those agents are like in adherence with brand guidelines
or if it's, or like properly representing like their image and likeness.
And if it's a brand, you know, they want to understand like,
is this agent in line with my brand guidelines?
Is he going off course?
Is he hallucinating? Things like that.
So our users can step in and evaluate the model that you've deployed and or the output that's
being generated from your agent. And they can verify that and score it and label it kind of
accordingly. And they're incentivized for doing that.
So they're really great, our users and validators
that kind of fine tuning agents
versus like deploying an agent.
And I think that's kind of another thing that's notable,
especially across DAI,
there are a lot of different companies
that are doing very similar things.
And so we really wanted to kind of focus on what we're good at.
And we think that is around like the human contribution and humans in the loop,
augmenting the output of agents and, you know, contributing in that way. In addition to,
you know, helping train the underlying models that these agents are deployed on, if that makes sense.
Yeah. Yeah. I don't know if I told you, Jennifer, but I wrote a book called AI First, Human Always.
Talked about the power of AI, of course, and why we still need humans,
but also focuses a lot on why blockchain and AI are crucial for the future.
And because I had to do my pen down nine months ahead of time, right?
I mean, think about that.
In AI time, that's like a lifetime.
I built an AI agent for my book.
It's the first book with an AI agent.
And I think it's interesting.
And I think it's interesting.
So I trained the agent on my book.
So I trained the agent on my book.
And then I also have been kind of adding to her learning as we go because so much has
changed even since I put the pen down on the book.
So I would love to see kind of what my little agent.
And I tried 17 platforms, Jennifer.
some of them were good in certain things, some are good in the other. It was really hard to find
Some of them were good in certain things.
Some are good in the other.
just a great overall platform to build my little AI first agent. So I'm interested to see how maybe
my little agent can participate in your big rain ecosystem, you know, as we move forward for sure.
Totally, totally. You can send us, we can talk about this offline, but we can take that data or we can take your agent and validate the data and the output to make sure that it's in line with your image and likeness, your beautiful image and likeness, Sandy Carter.
So if you gave us like specific parameters that you wanted to make sure that it was aligned with, we are humans and our validators can help train that agent and make sure that it's in line with your likeness.
Oh, that's really cool.
I like that.
I'm going to have to do that for sure.
And yes, I have a couple of people. How do you get the agent? Well, the agent has been trained on my book. So since I published the book with a publisher, Wiley, you do have to buy the book to get the agent. Otherwise, you can get the book for free and Wiley doesn't like that. But if you do want it, just ping me and I'll set you up. If you can show me, you purchase the book as well.
me and I'll set you up if you can show me you purchase the book as well. Okay, we're getting
ready to go into our last question that I have for Jennifer, but I want to see if anybody in the
community has a question for her. It's a great time to ask questions about decentralized AI,
what she has coming up next. And again, we're going to give away three dot reigns at the end.
So it's a great time to also get that free dot reign domain.
Any questions that we have out there? Raise your hands and we'll get those going. We'll get those
queued up. And while we're doing that, Jennifer, I'll ask you my last question, which is where are
where? Oops. Hang on. We got a request coming in right now for my, my buddy. So hang on one second.
Idris, are you up here?
I think I just let him up. Greg, can you also help me? I don't know if mine is, maybe I'm the problem. I don't know.
Oh, there you are. Idris great. Okay. You want to go ahead
and ask your question before I ask Jennifer my last question? Hello, Teddy. How are you doing? Fantastic. Fantastic. Great information out here. As an entrepreneur, I know that sometimes
people need some kind of support that are in kind and not monetary and stuff. And also as a RAIN
domain holder, what can we do to support the efforts of the RAIN project?
efforts of the RAINN project? Good question. Wow, I like that one. And you know the drill. If you
just DM Unstoppable, the main account, tell us what dot RAINN you want. We'll get you that.
Jennifer, I stalled a little, so you're ready to answer that question?
Yeah, yeah. So I think, you know, this is really a good question that's kind of at the heart of what we're building
because Rainmaker isn't just about earning tokens.
And JD does a better job of kind of conceptualizing this.
It's more about, JD's our fearless founder, it's more about building a movement where
everyone has a role in shaping the future of decentralized AI.
So you could be a validator ally, encouraging others to participate in validation tasks, downloading the app.
Even just a few per week helps improve models and prove out our system.
models and prove out our system. You can, you know, help amplify the mission, post about
your RAIN domain, your AI reputation, your favorite task to validate, things like that.
And if there's other, you know, edge case data sets or validation tasks that you think
we should prioritize, we encourage you to share that
feedback. So we have, you know, not just feedback loops for the AI models themselves, but for the
product itself. So, you know, bringing in validators from, you know, underrepresented
regions or communities so that we can continue to build AI that reflects
the world.
It needs diverse human feedback to do that.
And so that's kind of the ways that we could look for you to help amplify our mission and
help us kind of really shape the future of AI.
I love that.
That was great.
Great question, too.
Before I go on, any other questions that we have?
We have two more dot reigns up for bids, too.
If anybody has a question, just raise your hand,
and we'll get you up here and let you ask that question as well.
Don't be shy. You guys are, well at least my my guys usually are not shy so don't be
shy raise your hand and get a free domain as well I know some of you want
one because I know you're at like you know 5,200 or something and you're
looking to go to that next domain level while we we're waiting, Jennifer, I will just ask you about the future.
Like, first of all, what's the future? What do you think are some of the future elements for
Rainmaker? What does that future roadmap look like? Yeah, I think we're at an interesting place right now because we're kind of still developing a lot of the aspects of the platform.
So I think, you know, the contributor dashboards will be a focus where we can kind of have greater visibility into the AI reputation and validator scores and looking
at task history and impact and things like that.
So I think focusing on, you know, more real time insights into our users contributions,
bringing in more like reputation based task suggestions and reward multipliers.
I think we'll start to bring in more like progression system,
like levels and badges and things like that. And then I think we'll also really start to
double click on the AI reputation scoring system. So building, you know, dynamic
on-chain reputation engine where we're weighting the scores by domain type.
So if it's like video, that's going to be more valuable than like image or text.
And then I think we'll probably start to layer in like reputation-linked access to premium tasks and sprints.
And then I think, you know, from my perspective on ecosystem and BD stuff, continuing to focus on integrations with other high quality DAI platforms to carry that reputation across the ecosystem. I think is a good segue for how having like a domain powered utility like dot rain can help
because it will all be linked to a domain tier if you will and and the rain staking
can be linked to different like domain tiers.
That's an exciting future to be sure.
I've got some more questions for you.
But before I ask mine,
Johan is one of our most beloved whales.
And it looks like he has a question for you too.
Hello, Sandy.
Hello, Jennifer.
My internet's been a little bit spotty, so maybe you talked about this, but I'll ask it anyway. about the token, RAIN token. And do you have on the roadmap to have it on Binance later on?
And also what are you looking at with the staking
for the rewards for the RAIN token? Yes, yes.
So I think I'll answer the last question.
So we're laser focused on kind of deepening the token's utility in the ecosystem.
So I think that we'll start to bring in staking and reward boosts.
So the higher validator rep will have, you know,
higher earning potential.
And then again, continuing to give bonuses
for top contributors, domain holders,
campaign leaders, things like that.
And then Binance, you know, they approached us actually to be part of
their alpha listing, which is kind of like their launch pad. And we went back and forth as to
whether that made sense for us as a company and a community. And we really wanted to do what was in the best interest of the users that have been
contributing to our network all along and who have accrued a significant amount of points
that are being converted into these tokens.
So we decided that that Alphabet kind of launchpad was not the best move for us.
But that said, it definitely opened up conversations to Binance
to be as to list on another centralized exchange.
So I think, you know, we don't want to, we are being really thoughtful about this.
And I know, you know, there's a lot going on in
discord and there have maybe been some technical glitches and stuff like that but we're really in
this for the the long haul and that's just like stuff that kind of you know happened and and we
have launched on kraken um and we have um you know some reward flows already live there.
We're also live on Aerodrome and Uniswap and some of these other DEXs, DEX a lot, a few others coming on that front.
We're a, I would say we're a B to B to C platform, meaning we are at the end of the day, you know, connecting with consumers and that's who's in the app and engaging with the app and earning these particular rewards. think that they will be rewarded kind of accordingly. And as we think about other exchanges we want
to list on where there's more of like a retail and consumer base that wants to access these
tokens and they believe in the utility of the network that we're building, I think you'll
start to see us list on other exchanges like Coinbase maybe or Binance, for example, even OKEx.
I mean, we did a really super successful like wallet campaign with them.
And so those conversations are all happening.
We were just like ready to get this out the door and decided to just keep pushing forward with Kraken.
But I think Kraken, great exchange.
I think it's more institutional focused.
And again, we're much more focused on consumers and being a consumer facing app that we will look to list on more retail exchanges going forward after we've kind of seen some some progress on our first sex, which was Kraken.
And it's actually not even live in the U.S. yet. So you'll see like another big push when we go live in the U.S. and Canada on Kraken soon.
and Canada on Kraken soon.
So this was just kind of like the first test.
And I think there's a lot more to come
and a lot of really exciting exchanges
that we can open up access to
and just really evangelize the project
and the company and what we're building.
That's how we're thinking about it
is we just want to have more and more exposure to
users that can contribute and participate in our network.
And Johan, did you have one more question or did she answer everything you needed?
That was good. And also, could you possibly expand a little bit about the collaboration with Google's VIO? I've been looking into using VIO and yeah, they're amazing. Their results are incredible. So I'd like to know a little bit more about that if you could.
Yeah, yeah, definitely. So I'd say that's one of the most exciting things that we've done recently is contributing to the training and validation pipeline for VO. So for those that aren't aware, VO is Google DeepMind's latest high fidelity AI video model.
model um and it i mean what it the and also by the way all the video that you guys are seeing on our
twitter page um is generated all that content's generated using vo which is amazing like it's
beautiful it's like so realistic and um that's all through text prompts um so it's it's really significant because it's a major leap forward in what's called like
multimodal AI. But like all, you know, generative models, Veo's performance depends on feedback and
alignment and refinement from humans. And that's where we come in. So Veo is, you know, through our train agent, our real human validators are able to review AI generated video segments from VIO and then they can tag or annotate those. scene inconsistencies or like motion artifacts and things like that like super nuanced details
that JD who is also a producer and has done a lot kind of in that in that space and he has a ton of
experience with film and filmmaking and so that is something that's incredibly valuable to filmmakers
is having access to kind of these edge cases of the video models that are being deployed
to identify and call out things like scene inconsistencies or like motion artifacts,
things like that. So what our users can do is provide a structured feedback
that helps fine tune Veo's outputs.
And then what we're really looking to kind of do
going forward with Veo is create kind of like micro data
sets that will continue to improve the performance
for specific verticals.
So I mean, think about like sports
is very different from like, you know, global cultural content.
And so building out data sets to help improve
like these kind of micro data sets is important.
And then, so these validation tasks
that are happening on our network
are then submitted through like enterprise workflows.
And that's where the users in the app are completing those tasks and they're
rewarded in RAINN and tracked via their RAINN domain.
Dear Han, fabulous questions.
If you can just do the same as we just mentioned,
just DM our unstoppable and we'll get you that free.rain.
I do have just a second for one more question
before I give Jennifer kind of time to wrap up
with her final one or two key points.
Anybody else?
We have one more free.rain out there.
Anybody else have a question or a comment
that you'd like to make to secure that?
I have a question. I don't need a RAIN domain.
Everybody needs one, but you have one, right?
Yes, exactly. But my interest really peaked when you were talking about on-chain reputation.
And I think that's like a huge area of opportunity just across all of Web3 when you have a lot of scams and trust is hard.
But I guess what is like the how does the reputation go from the zero to one?
Because once you have reputable people, if they vouch for people or agents, it's easy to track that.
But what's that like zero to one unlock look like?
How's that being conceptualized?
So I think you're spot on.
Like trust is kind of the biggest missing layer in both AI and Web3 right now.
There's tons of bots and scans and kind of anonymous actors. And we need
as a world, a global society, we need a new system of credibility. And having what Rainmaker
is building is the ability to, you know, create and earn and verify the output here and build upon that reputation.
So that's where we'll layer in like different quests, different, maybe even thinking through
some people have various like domain expertise, where they are more qualified to identify
something like a scene mismatch or something in a video output.
So they will have a reputation associated with maybe being a filmmaker, and so they would
be able to earn more rewards and receive greater incentives based on their domain-specific reputation, if that makes sense.
So it's, you know, the validator score is like,
it's looking at things like task accuracy,
you know, the diversity of domains, like video, image, text,
things like that, campaign completion history,
time-weighted consistency,
and then also feedback from the actual enterprises
and AI models that are signaling like this person is real
and reliable and skilled.
And as your reputation grows,
then you're getting unlocking perks
like access to higher value validation tasks.
Like all of these things will be monetized based on the value that you're contributing.
So if your reputation is really high, then you should be earning more because you're
more knowledgeable in a specific domain.
Does that answer your question?
I love the way, like, and I was really happy to hear that you were separating
it out by domain because there's like plenty of people i would say that i i really respect their
opinions in one field and don't in another so like i don't know a silly example that i think everyone
can half relate to would be like an athlete when they start talking about politics it's like okay
that's not your domain of expertise like i'll listen to you talking about how to shoot a basketball but
like your tax policy is something that like i don't think you actually have the same credibility
as someone who spent a career in that field or whatever so no that's a really cool and interesting
way to do it so thank you yep yep and. Yep. And I actually have to run.
So if there are any other questions, let me know. No, I think that's great, Jennifer. Do you want
to just do like a one sentence takeaway? I did post up to the top, you know, things that I think
you should do from this is to grab your dotrain domain. I have a link up there.
Earn $rain the token by training AI or validating, and I've got the link up there.
And then also to connect your domain, obviously follow Unstoppable, follow Rainmaker. But Jennifer,
any last words before we exit? Yeah, I think in the context of our discussion and what the work that
Unstoppable Domains is doing, Rainmaker turns your AI contributions into an on-chain reputation
and rewards you with RAINN token. And that's the token that proves your work and empowers your earnings and
grows with your impact. So we're excited to continue to see this evolve. And I think that
this is just the beginning. I agree. Well, thank you, Jennifer. Thank you to the Rainmaker team.
Thank you to Wyatt for helping us put this together. And everybody have a beautiful Friday and a great weekend.
Thank you, guys.
Thanks, Sandy.
