AI Coding Proposal
As the post linked to the proposal is merely a question checking if people would be interested in it before I even made the proposal, and since people have been messaging me asking about it, I thought I'd make a more concrete post about how it will work.
The proposal is set to go live in 6 days and is currently still under the threshold of being funded:
Either way, the main things I'll be asking applicants who wanna use it are these:
- Are you building something on Hive?
- Is it something that's relatively unique?
- Are you actively working on it?
Now there won't just be questions, I'll be requiring them to share their repos with me so I as well as Claude can take a look at them.
I decided that closed sourced projects can be accepted as well but it's up to the dev to decide if they want to trust me with looking into the code since I need to make sure they're going to make the most out of the subscription the DHF paid for and not just have a repo as an excuse to get it while working on other things not related to Hive. I'm actively working on many projects myself so I understand if some wouldn't want to trust me looking at their ideas/etc, this isn't something that can be helped since I wanna keep this proposal as transparent and its use as genuine as possible for efficiency of the hive ecosystem.
To receive a new subscription after you've already received one, you will need to prove that you've been actively working on the repo you applied with and/or mention in time if you've pivoted to a different idea/project which still fills the requirements above.
The funds will be sent as HBD including VAT (and potentially some extra fees for transfers/exchanges).
I'll be keeping excessive HBD in savings to accrue interest to potentially afford a few more subscriptions later on since they are only required monthly. As I mentioned in the linked post I will also take a fee for the workload to organize and overview this proposal.
Some things that may be case-to-case decisions.
If your project is relatively unique may be hard to pinpoint. I'll be trying to stay neutral about it, for instance if you're working on another front-end it should maybe offer something unique than say another copy of ecency/peakd/hive.blog/etc.
Over time once you have your project released in MVP and improving, interest may also play a role if you will continue to receive HBD for subscriptions. That means, are there any users actually interested in using your product after it's been launched for some time. If there's very little interest and potential it may mean you won't be accepted for further subscriptions down the line.
I'll also be offering non-devs smaller subscriptions as starters, but you'll need to show you have had some experience and know how to use AI coding effectively through your github/gitlab even if you can't code.
Lastly as I also mentioned in the comments of the linked post, you don't need to use Claude or ChatGPT or Codex, etc, whatever floats your boat as long as there's results and activity that can be tracked.
I'll be also posting monthly updates that may act as a soft promotion towards your projects (if they're launched) and if they're opensource, if not I'll be noting down that you received funding for a closed sourced project you're not ready to launch/share details about yet.
I've personally had a very good experience with AI coding ever since I got started and honestly have been working on too many projects to count at the top of my head. I hope this aid with subscriptions will inspire more people to get busy and create what they may have wanted to create for Hive but have not been able to in the past.
