This appears to be an advertisement for a (somewhat inscrutable) AI product they're selling called CANONIC, that also has a cryptocoin bolted on to it somehow.

Oh boy, if it's powered by AI /AND/ the blockchain, you know it's gonna be legit ;)

		Oh boy is right. If BITCOIN is SPECulation to distribute cryptographic transactions on a blockchain pre AI, CANONIC is a SPECification to distribute WORK contracts with your AI on a blockchain. So BITCOIN=SPECulation. While CANONIC COIN=SPECification… of WORK! https://hadleylab.org/blogs/2026-02-23-coin-for-humans/

This is partially true. Thanks for the comment. I’m the developer of CANONIC. It’s an AI GOV framework. But crypto it is not. The opposite.

CANONIC is a learning language to fully govern AI. Ask yourself why you are still programming computation with LLMs when they repeatedly outperform humans on such coding tasks. What’s missing is AI GOV. CANONIC is a contract with your AI. COIN becomes an artifact of good AI governence. Hardly an opaque transaction. :)

		It’s a tortured metaphor for benefit or value or bounty. So, to work with the cardiologist, she publicly issues a bounty (numerator) in COIN and I privately estimate the effort denominator. Triage the table of bounties by this fraction. I guess it could also be used to communicate that some problems are too difficult for modest resources, if the reward exceeds 255. Anyway, the only thing worth spending it on is resource upgrades, right?
