Refer to summary for creating a Community Neuron Fund for marketing Caffeine AI.

### **Summary**

This proposal requests the creation of a Community Neuron Fund that enables NNS neuron holders to donate their maturity to a dedicated pool for funding marketing efforts for Caffeine AI, specifically targeting everyday AI users beyond the crypto space, on centralized social media like Facebook and TikTok, as well as other mediums like articles and promotions from tech Youtubers.

Maturity donated to the Community Neuron Fund will be regularly converted into ICP and sold to fund marketing efforts. Dfinity will be responsible for managing this process and disbursing funds in a transparent and accountable manner - ideally through a dedicated section within the NNS dApp where users can monitor Community Neuron Fund usage, including metrics about which marketing agencies/ companies receive ICP/fiat currency, and how much.

This is not intended to be a permanent feature, but instead similar to SNS DAO funding. If one day the NNS decides to cancel this feature because there is no more need, I am all for that, and will vote to end the fund and send back unused maturity back to the donors.

### **Motivation**

I strongly believe Caffeine AI will be used by everyday people that have no interest in blockchain. Even simple LLMs like DeepSeek went TikTok viral this year, and had millions of users testing it, to compare it to ChatGPT. This is a potential opportunity to onboard hundreds of thousands of new users to the ICP ecosystem, in a matter of weeks/ months. The members of the NNS deserve a way to contribute their unspawned maturity directly towards marketing efforts, within the NNS, should they feel like doing so, and have a way of tracking the marketing efforts.
