Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin wrote on the X platform that Deep Funding combines the concepts of "value map" and "refined human judgment", including:
1. Value map: Don't ask "How much contribution has X made to humanity?", but ask "How much of Y's credit belongs to X?"
2. Refined human judgment: The open market of artificial intelligence will fill in all weights, and human juries will randomly check.
The first concept (value map) has gradually become a popular paradigm in recent years, and there are good reasons. It is very difficult to measure contributions in the abstract: if you ask people how much they are willing to spend to save N birds, they will answer that it is $80 when N=2000 and $80 when N=200000. More "local" questions like "For C, which one is more valuable, A or B?" are easier to deal with. The second concept (refined human judgment) is based on some ideas in my article on information finance: Condensed human judgment in information finance. Anyone can use any method (such as AI) to suggest weights for all graph edges, and a human jury will perform a detailed analysis of randomly sampled edges. The submission that is most compatible with the jury's answer determines the final output. "
