What it does

Companies and Institutions Contribute —> fund the pool through a 20% avg solidarity tax on their AI consumption or direct donation. Humans Receive —> a monthly cash share, with no strings attached.

A protocol for the post-labour economy. Five percent of every frontier-model API call, routed through a public ledger, paid out monthly as an equal cash share to every verified human.

Companies and Institutions Contribute — fund the pool through a 20% avg solidarity tax on their AI consumption or direct donation. Humans Receive — a monthly cash share, with no strings attached. AI and robotics are absorbing more of the economy's productive energy every year. OpenIncome is the layer that ensures a slice of that productivity flows back — to everyone, everywhere. When machines do the work, the cost of producing value collapses. The savings should circulate, not concentrate. AI generates value 24/7 with no fatigue. A thin slice of that flow funds a baseline for everyone — by design, not by promise. Not a replacement for salaries or social systems — an additional income layer…from openincome.ai

  • Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
