## Augmenting the ReFi Knowledge Graph with AI

**TLDR**
In the quest to democratize access to the burgeoning field of regenerative finance (ReFi), Myseelia proudly spearheads an innovative project to forge a natural language interface for the ReFi Knowledge Graph. Under leadership of Darren Zal and in strategic partnership with Monty Merlin, Myseelia is set to unlock the transformative potential of ReFi by combining tyhe language processing power of Large Language Models (LLMs) with the structured knowledge of a Knowledge Graph, setting a new standard for intelligent, accessible, and collaborative platforms in the ReFi ecosystem. The envisioned interface transcends mere information retrieval, offering a platform for dialogue that delivers personalized insights and empowers stakeholders with the knowledge for strategic action in the realm of ReFi.


## Project Description
### Problem Statement

Our planet faces a complex web of crises: climate change, biodiversity loss, social and economic inequity, perpetuated by a lack of holistic understanding and wise collective action.


Recent advancements in AI have revolutionized the landscape of natural language processing. However, their "black-box" nature often limits their verifiability and statistical model leads to generalizations and hallucinations.

### Proposed Solution

The ReFi Knowledge Graph: A living, AI-infused database designed to:
- Foster collective intelligence
- Propagate regenerative culture and insights
- Coordinate impactful ground activities
- Educate and integrate local communities globally

The ReFi Knowledge Graph is envisioned to serve as a foundational tool for holistic understanding and systemic change. By mapping out the interconnections of problems, solutions, and stakeholders in a cohesive, accessible manner, it aims to cultivate a way for informed decision-making, effective collaboration, and the fostering of collective intelligence necessary for a flourishing future. The combination of LLMs with the ReFi knowledge graph will democratize access to an evolving verifiable knowledge ecosystem.

### Outcome of Grant
With a new AI natural language interface, the ReFi knowledge graph will become accessible to all, streamlining entry into the ReFi sector, enabling ecosystem exploration, and enhancing knowledge exchange from local to global scales.

- Database Enrichment: Ongoing enhancement of the ReFi knowledge graph database and ontology.
- Natural Language Interface: Development of a natural language question-answering system to facilitate user interaction with the database.

## Budget Allocation
- 50% for the development of the technological aspects, including implementation of AI-driven tools (chatbot, recommendations engine), semantic search capabilities, and general knowledge graph database management and enhancement.
- 50% for the continuous building of ReFi DAO’s ReFi Knowledge Graph database, data collection, and ontology design & evolution.

## Eligibility Criteria

### Open Source
- **Commitment**: Full transparency with all code and developments hosted on GitHub.

### Recent Activity
- **Demonstration**: There has been meaningful GitHub activity from both ReFiDAO and Myseelia within the past 3 months, demonstrating ongoing work that is aligned with the project's mission.

### Web3 Focus
- **Alignment**: Our endeavors are intricately linked with the expansion of the Ethereum and Web3 landscape, championing a decentralized, informed approach to global regeneration.

## Conclusion
With this funding, we aim to solidify this ReFi knowledge network as core infrastructure for regenerative finance and culture.
