How Tendril Works: Two Ways to Help Power AI
There are two ways to help power AI with Tendril, and you can do one or both. On a computer you open a tab and it quietly runs AI in the background. On your phone you play Tap to Train: see two AI answers, tap the better one. Both earn TEND Points, with no coding required.
