Just recently @nprofile…eqct spoke about how every company can now be a mini-AGI.
https://youtu.be/YTVSwOY19Qs?is=EEPwwMLXBRYxdfYn
The data that goes IN will be essential to the output of the AGI. The "Human Signal Layer" how it's built and structured will be a large part of that. Shared some thoughts about this with the Sprout team here: https://github.com/block/sprout/issues/242

2026-04-10 14:22:03 UTC

Every company is rushing to build intelligence into their products. AI layers, world models, agents running in the background. And most of them will get it wrong.
Not because the tech isn't good. Because the input isn't.
The intelligence is only ever as good as the signal feeding it.
https://npub1urhnkns9rt4c9mk6t9xctjkzmlkawxkdpzjnxdxhx82mqm7hfpuq0j7ueh.blossom.band/c9c6123145ce96f9ae797db3581ee13d6bd62ca2766a49788d9d4e009f94ab38.jpg And right now, almost nobody is thinking seriously about where that signal comes from, how it's collected, how it's structured, and whether it actually reflects real human experience.
That's the gap. And that's what I'm calling the Human Signal Layer.
It sits underneath everything else. Before the intelligence layer. Before the world model. If those two layers are the brain, the Human Signal Layer is what the brain eats. Feed it junk, you get junk answers. Feed it real, structured, high quality human signal and suddenly your product decisions are being generated by your users, not your assumptions.
In a world where every product team has access to the same AI tools, the companies that win will be the ones who figured out how to listen better.
That's the layer almost nobody is building yet. And it's the most important one.

Hi everyone, I'm putting together a framework and I want to do it collaboratively with the community and ask for your input. The idea is to zoom out and map the core use cases - the real human needs behind why people use bitcoin or would use bitcoin.
Bitcoin use case framework - Draft:
1. Simple daily money
I am a non-native English speaker, I am not familiar with this technology, I hesitate to trust it, I want the simplest way to use this digital money. (super super super simple, my 12 year old can use it)
2. Serious security & privacy
I have used bitcoin wallets for a few years now, I am looking for the highest level of security and privacy
3. Financial survival
I want to use bitcoin because I have no bank account or my bank account has been frozen.
4. Generational wealth
I want to save for the future of my family.
5. Shared treasury
We as multiple people want to control the wallet. (like funding organizations, families, or community treasuries)
I'd love your input:
- Do these use cases reflect what you see?
- What are we missing?
- How would you frame this differently?
Here are the next steps in mind after we have reached consensus with this step:
1. What does the most basic user journey look like under each user story?
2. What technology is needed under each user story?
3. Map out the already existing products in the ecosystem, ask the question under which of these categories do they fit?
4. What is missing in them and if added would greatly improve the use case for that particular story?

AI + UX Research Walkthrough -> For Bitcoiners learning to run local AI models
We're running local AI models because the public AI models are not necessarily safe to sift through our data. A lot of Bitcoiners are very privacy focused, so it's very important to run local models so that the data we're sharing is not available to the public.
Here are the steps I go through to create high-quality output analysis of data using AI: https://image.nostr.build/1549f8bac14d5947a89726abfe387b795800f106c434fec2ddbfa2c747a1ffd9.png
---
### 1. Prepare the Raw Data
Preparing the data might sound overly complicated, but it's not.
The problem AI has is recognizing that you've done, for example, 12 interviews. It might only pick three of those interviews.
You need to create a document and label every single interview. Copy and paste every single interview transcript and write person one, person two, person three, person four, and so on.
### 2. Provide Context to the AI Model
You're going to be providing context to the AI model. Here you can use a public AI to create the prompt - this is all the preparation phase. You're not processing the data yet.
What I usually do is take my UX research plan and pop it into the AI model. I give the AI model context in terms of what I'm about to be processing. Now it has context. It knows the reason, the goals, the visions.
### 2. Prepare the Prompt
I say to the AI model: "Use the data that I've given you, and I want you to prepare a prompt based on the goals and vision of the UX research sprint that I've done."
Then it's going to prepare a prompt. That's the prompt you're going to use, and you're going to take that prompt into the local AI model running on your PC.
### 3. Process Data in Biteable Pieces
You can do it in two ways:
Take the prompt, put it in, attach the PDF, and click run,
Process the data in bite-sized chunks - use half of the prompt first with all the data, then use half of the prompt again for the second half,
The local AI models become less intelligent the further down the chat you go because they use up the tokens. So I tend to put the prompt in the beginning and all of the data in the beginning.
Something really crucial: Say "I want you to use all of the data that I've provided. I want you to use person one, person two, person three, person four, and so on."
If you don't do this, the AI model will not be smart enough to pick up on the fact that it needs to use all of the data points you provided. In my experience, it will only use three of the data points.
That's a quick summary----> Any questions shoot them this way! And very happy to learn from others who are also using AI to process UX Research
** this post was created by using an AI voice tool and the summarizing feature. Simply recorded the audio notes, had AI transcribe and summarize the notes using my own language as the core foundation.

Nostr developers! 🌟
We're diving deep into something new ➡️ Understanding how activists communicate and how Nostr can help them.
Why? Because building better tools starts with really getting how people use them.
Here's the scoop: We've been researching communication patterns in activists and have uncovered five distinct areas. But we know there's more to this story, and that's exactly why we need your help.
We're hosting an online workshop to:
1. Explore these communication patterns in detail
2. Identify what we might be missing
📅 Date: February 25th
⏰ Time: 11:00am ET (17:00 CET)
Whether you're a seasoned Nostr developer or just getting started, your perspective would be incredibly valuable.
Want in? Just drop me a message and I'll shoot over a meeting invite. 🚀

Something I learnt as a UX researcher:
The onboarding flow of the application is a make or break moment for the user experience.
Create friction and they will leave confused.
Care about it and users will love you for it and tell their friends about it.
