The power of knowledge graphs

I wonder if this may be a more natural way to create incentives. Measure the usage of the thing you want to incentivize better, so it has more “cred potential”?

That’s very very interesting. Normally, you have to first figure out how to measure a thing, then create an incentive model around that measurement. With SourceCred, the measurement actually creates the incentives because then cred can flow to that data point. That’s amazing!

I really like this framing of SourceCred. Once I get a chance I want to write an essay about SourceCred as an “incentive compiler”, and I think this really gets at the heart of how things will work: if we have an adaptable, general-purpose system for measuring value, then its somewhat trivial to use it to build adaptable, general-purpose incentives.
