In S11 E8 we welcomed Nick Naraghi 🧢 from Hats Protocol 🧢 back onto the pod to discuss the evolution of DAOs and AI If you listened to Nick's previous episode, you already know this conversation took a philosophical turn 🤔

We then brought on the other co-founder of Hats Protocol 🧢 and world renowned burrito critic spengrah.eth for our second minihash episode of the season Three years after his anticapture article launched into the DAOverse, we revisit his thesis and how we're seeing it applied beyond

agents wear hats, too

.Hats Protocol 🧢 is in a great position to help with 2 and 3

DAOs are in fact already uniquely capable of "rapid structural changes"* The unlock is the smart contract-enabled capacity to instantiate the organization as a network of atomic units which can be flexibly and programmatically reconfigured I believe that the right primitive for

Wait until you see the powered by Ethereum version of this illustration The On-chain Organizational Tree for the Kokonut Network 💚🥥🌴 Ecosystem will prompt the community to write new case studies and research; hopefully, it gets forked into other verticals Powered by Hats Protocol 🧢

And so it begins. Thanks for the walkthrough Wasabi 🥥🌴 cc Hats Protocol 🧢

"multi-level structures" and fractal governance are Hats Protocol 🧢 specialties When a DAO uses Hats Protocol, they instantiate their org structure onchain as a tree of roles, each of which are modularly embedded with responsibilities, resources/permissions, agent-selection

this is what Hats Protocol 🧢 was made for

The number things you can use Hats with just got bigger! Big congrats to our friends at Fileverse on the new launch of dsheets 🙌

divinecomedian.eth | $GIV Don’t just have him start with Hats Protocol 🧢 actually you can run any business with it doesn’t have to be a DAO but it can be an effective way to run a DAO.

are you not even the least bit curie-ous?

"We wanted to give specific people power & responsibility, but there wasn't really a way to do it using on-chain mechanisms" -Nick Naraghi 🧢 on the abstract of the Hats Protocol 🧢 mission

"We had to sort of back out from all the current best DAO thinking" "It's so stuck in a local maximum" - Nick Naraghi 🧢 of Hats Protocol 🧢 on reigniting the spark towards a brand new way to DAO

🤖 How could AI impact DAO dynamics? 📡 What ethical, legal, and social challenges come with it? 🧠 What role will autonomous agents play in governance? This Tuesday 22 at 15:00 UTC, we’re hosting a Space to explore how AI is reshaping decentralized decision-making. 🎙

PROOF OF TIME next Wednesday, celebrate 10 years of Ethereum with the community at Cosimo Capiτal ⚜️ alongside hopscotch.trade, Oku 🐼, Hats Protocol 🧢, and Chicago Tech Collaborative event link below

🔮 Can the collective intelligence of a DAO outperform AI in the long run? AI will centralize power… but decentralized collective intelligence will ultimately win because it’s more resilient and effective. Last week, together with Nick Naraghi 🧢 (Hats Protocol 🧢), Federico Ast
