How can AI be fully integrated with Web3?

How can AI be integrated with Web3?

In the context of AI, the only certainty is uncertainty. People like certainty, but this uncertainty brought about by AI, under the tide of technological development, is irreversible. Optimists believe that the emergence of AI will bring unimaginable cost savings and efficiency gains to the world. Pessimists believe that AI will have a profound impact on the rules of the current industry, and therefore will bring about a large amount of unemployment.

But no matter what, from the appearance of ChatGPT to now, people’s views on AI have gradually been accepted from surprise and concern. People seem to realize that whether welcoming or rejecting, AI is uncontroversially going to penetrate into various fields of people and disrupt various industries with its mechanism and potential.

Now, AI is entering Web3 and exerting its influence on the entire industry.

Wang Yishi, the former founder of OneKey, said on Twitter: The narrative of Web3 has shifted from cryptocurrency to AI. Wang Yishi’s view is not unique. Many people in the Web3 industry believe that AI’s impact on Web3 is huge, especially in the NFT and GameFi fields. The emergence of the AIGC concept means that there is a new paradigm for content creation. From PGC (Professionally Generated Content) to UGC (User Generated Content), and now to AIGC, the work of content creation is handed over to the program.

In addition to the impact of AIGC on Web3 content, in fact, AI’s impact on Web3 is more profound than we think.

AI is “rectifying” Web3

AI’s “rectification” of Web3 comes from two aspects: On the one hand, the emergence of AI technology has dispersed capital’s attention to Web3.

Before the emergence of AI, Web3 was once a sweet spot in the eyes of VCs and institutions, and various industries also launched various Web3 concepts (such as digital collections, metaverse, etc.) as gimmicks. But after the emergence of AI, this situation changed.

In the eyes of institutions, AIGC is at least more reliable than Web3, at least it is a practical thing, rather than a concept that needs to be foreseen. The interest of institutions is shifting, coupled with other reasons such as the bear market and regulation. According to the Gyro Research Institute, the global financing events in the Web3 field in March this year amounted to 5.676 billion yuan, a year-on-year decrease of 47.98%.

Capital is leaving the Web3 field and entering AI. On the other hand, the emergence of AI is changing the mechanisms and logic of the Web3 field. Web3 projects are starting to focus on adding elements of AI to their own ecosystems. Some projects are evolving to at least have an AI concept or at least a GPT interface to show off. We can view this phenomenon as AI’s “rectification” of the Web3 world, or as a self-defense mechanism of the Web3 world based on AI’s strong “invasion”.

This leads to the emergence of the AI Web3 concept. In the process of integrating AI and Web3, many different products have emerged in the market. These products can generally be divided into two categories: one is to add AI elements based on the direction of the project itself. These products often intervene in some AI tool interfaces based on their own product basis, and emphasize the empowerment and promotion of AI on the product when promoting it to the outside world, like AIGOGE.

Another way to combine AI and Web3 is to pursue cost reduction and efficiency enhancement. Pionex is a major player in AI+trading strategy, while Getch, Cortex, SingularityNET focus on AI+infrastructure construction. Numerai focuses more on AI+financial forecasting, and so on.

The emergence of Web3 products with different AI concepts reflects the market’s and capital’s favor for this type of product. For example, the AIDOGE currency, launched on April 18th, rose 218.50% within two days. Tokens of projects such as Fetch.ai (FET), SingularityNET (AGIX), and Ocean Protocol (Ocean) have grown by 110%, 61.53%, and 66.67% respectively in 90 days.

While the secondary market of the AI Web3 concept is hot, the primary market is even more impressive. AI Web3 concept products have also won one financing after another this year. On March 29th of this year, Fetch.ai received a $40 million investment from SWF Labs.

Currently, the AI+Web3 concept seems to be a major trend in the future. Therefore, the veDAO Research Institute has sorted out the different tracks in which AI may bring changes to Web3 for reference.

AI Empowers Different Tracks of Web3

AI-based trading strategies

The general idea of liquidity mining strategy based on ChatGPT is to use the ChatGPT model to predict the market situation, to determine whether to participate in liquidity mining and to choose the best timing.

The effect of AI on trading strategies:

  • Data collection: Use APIs to obtain data required for liquidity mining from exchanges, such as the price, trading volume, liquidity provided and attracted, etc. of trading pairs.

  • Data preprocessing: Clean, transform and standardize the collected data for subsequent analysis and modeling.

Summary:

Overall, the emergence of AI is not just a new technology, but a new concept and field that will bring a series of iterations and even subversion to the underlying operating logic of the entire society. This is also true for the Web3 world. The relationship between AI and Web3 will not be limited to the fusion of concepts or the simple addition of AI tools to a project. Instead, it will directly penetrate into the underlying logic of Web3, so that all behaviors in Web3 are endowed with the meaning of AI existence, making Web3 more efficient and intelligent.

It is just like the philosophy association between production tools and production relations. The two cannot be viewed independently. What kind of production tools are available determines what kind of productivity is available, and what kind of productivity is available provides the necessary conditions for the emergence and popularization of corresponding production relations. If Web3 based on blockchain represents the updated production relations, then AI is undoubtedly the most advanced production tool of this era. Therefore, we have reason to believe that the emergence, popularization, and integration of AI technology as a production tool will inevitably play a decisive role in the popularization and promotion of the Web3 concept in the future.
