I recently looked into the Kindred AI project. To be honest, it's a bit complex, but I think the direction is quite right—it is still in the growth stage.

I quite agree with its idea—creating a truly memorable, understanding, and companionable AI character. This is quite interesting because most AIs eventually become just tools. But what Kindred wants to do is change this logic, transforming AI from a functional tool into warm companionship. In the current AI Agent track, this is indeed a worthwhile angle to explore.

What they do well is not just chasing trends but focusing on "relationship accumulation" as the core. This requires time, but the approach is clear. The project is still developing, but I am optimistic about its potential.

Having warm companionship is a perspective I’m hearing for the first time, but the logic definitely makes sense. Building relationships for the long term is a rare breed in the crypto world, haha. The Kindred approach is much more reliable than most AI projects, but there are risks during the growth stage. Let’s see the follow-up actions. Not many projects can succeed in this track, but if it really can be done... there’s some room for imagination. Wait, isn’t this another concept of aping, or is there truly a differentiation?

Hey, the relationship accumulation approach is indeed different. It's much better than those rushing to cash out and harvest the profits.

Warm companionship? Sounds good, but can it really be achieved? For now, it still depends on the actual implementation. I understand this idea, but I'm worried it might end up becoming just another tool. The concept of relationship accumulation is indeed imaginative, but we need to see how user retention turns out. To put it simply, no matter how good the concept is, it has to be put into practice. Whether Kindred can break through this time is really hard to say.

ngl, kindred's trying to do something different but feels like classic venture theater rn. "relationship accumulation" sounds nice on the whitepaper... until the leverage blows up and everyone rage-quits. watched too many "emotional AI" projects liquidate when the hype cascade ended.

I agree with the angle of relationship accumulation, but can temperature really be created?

The angle of relationship accumulation is indeed interesting. It looks much better than those short-sighted projects.

The relationship accumulation angle is indeed interesting; it's much more reliable than projects that just got approved yesterday and are raising funds tomorrow.

I like the angle of relationship accumulation; it's much more reliable than those chaotic AI projects. That's right, most AI ultimately just become tools. The Kindred approach is indeed somewhat interesting. Creating a sense of warmth is very difficult, but persistently refining it is always better than following the trend. From functionality to companionship, it sounds simple, but few can truly do it well. AI with warmth is more scarce than cold, emotionless tools, and perhaps worth paying attention to. I give credit for not chasing the trend; at least the attitude is sincere.
