The integration of blockchain with AI streamlines processes and accelerates productivity, and blockchain can be used to guide the evolution and application of AI. 1️⃣ Understanding these technologies can enhance trust among users and businesses, drive broader adoption, and potentially revolutionize the system and impact the world. 2️⃣ As Web3 evolves, it seeks to apply its new model of digital ownership to more and more up and coming technologies. The integration of AI has been particularly interesting, and despite its critics, many are working on using blockchain to fix some of the problems of generative AI. 3️⃣ Historically, the internet has facilitated the exchange and storage of data for various purposes, including business and content creation. With the advent of Web2, data collection skyrocketed with corporations holding all the keys to it. Corporations know everything about its users, and there’s justifiable angst at applying the same framework to AI. Privacy issues with AI data collection and training are raised ever more frequently. 4️⃣ In this context, Web3 aspires to create a secure environment where users retain custody of their assets, both fungible and non-fungible, while ensuring the availability of verified and reliable information. 5️⃣ The integration of blockchain with AI streamlines processes and accelerates productivity, and blockchain can be used to guide the evolution and application of AI. Understanding these technologies can enhance trust among users and businesses, drive broader adoption, and potentially revolutionize the system and impact the world. 6️⃣ To delve deeper into this topic, read the interview with Nate Holiday, CEO and co-founder of Space and Time. #blockchain #ai #web3

🚄 Equilibrium Labs Infra Bulletin #22 covers state growth as the final boss of blockchain scaling, cryptoeconomic vs ZK coprocessors, and the anti-superchain thesis. Let's dive in! 🤿 ⚔️ State growth refers to the ever-increasing accumulation of data that must be stored and managed by nodes in a blockchain network. It affects both the performance and decentralization of the network. A lot of focus has been placed on the other two main bottlenecks of blockchain scaling - execution and data (storage and availability) - but state growth gets less attention. While it's often seen as a future problem that's not yet at a critical stage, solutions are being worked on (such as stateless clients and state rent). Fuel leverages the UTXO model, which gives some benefits like localized state trees, native assets and no approval state, along with other tricks to minimize the storage burden. 💰Coprocessors enable verifiable off-chain computation on on-chain data, either through cryptoeconomics or cryptography (ZKPs). While they aren't exactly the same (ZK is better for data-heavy computation whereas cryptoeconomic is more suitable for price-sensitive tasks), they are partially substitutable. Even though the cost and speed of ZK-proving are improving rapidly, re-execution may be still cheaper in the long term if the number of nodes is low enough - especially for more general-purpose compute. These may cater for different purposes where ZK serves data-heavy use cases and those that require stronger guarantees (cryptographic > cryptoeconomic), whereas cryptoeconomic coprocessors are used for computation that’s more price-sensitive and not as data-heavy. 🚫The anti-superchain thesis by Cooper Kunz is an interesting thought experiment that challenges the current consensus path that a lot of L2s are pursuing. A superchain is a network of chains that share a common governance and tech stack. Cooper's argument relies on the assumption that there will be a relatively low number of chains that consume most of the relevant resources, which will want to differentiate and be more sovereign. In other words - any chain that becomes successful enough will eventually outgrow the superchain. This would mean that superchains end up serving the long tail of L2s, which are less valuable from an economic standpoint. While it rests on many assumptions, it’s always valuable to consider alternative views - especially if they are counter-consensus.

We've got a great webinar on Tuesday, July 30th, 1pm-2pm est, " Decentralized AI - The Obstacles and Opportunities". Per Grayscale, AI related tokens have been the best performers YTD, and we're just getting started. The opportunities are vast, but the pace of innovation is so mind blowing, that it's difficult to keep up. So we've got three great featured guests to give you their latest insights including Greg Osuri, Founder at Overclock Labs, creators of Akash Network; Eric Bravick, Founder of The Lifted Initiative & Head of AI the CryptoOracle Collective, and Gregor Žavcer, Director at Swarm. Each guest will talk off sldies for ~10 minutes, with the remaing time available for Q&A.

You've definitely heard of DePIN but why is decentralized infrastructure all the rage? It could be the key to unlocking the compute power needed for the AI revolution, for one. Read all about it in this week's edition of SO WHAT? A Web3 Digest for Executives.

As we continue to evolve as a company, one thing that has become abundantly clear is that the space will continue to move towards an appchain and modular chain paradigm creating a more fragmented experience for developers and users alike. Similar to how HashiCorp Terraform bridged the gap in complex multi-cloud deployments, the blockchain space needs an orchestration layer that will help projects and their respective users navigate an insurmountable number of chain combinations (with different consensus mechanisms, rpcs, cross chain messaging protocols, etc). We're excited to be key player that is ushering a new era in blockchain wherein projects of all shapes and sizes will be able to seamlessly add and manage new chain support or infrastructure using a multi-agent AI framework similar to that of Cognition. This expansion of our original product shape not only helps our existing products scale, but supercharges existing customers and technology partners like Caldera (a rollup deployment provider) who help projects deploy chains out-of-the-box with integrations already built-in (faucets, block explorers, etc.). To help us reach our full potential as the our problem space expands into blockchain integrations at scale using AI, we've been working on assemble the right team and advisory board. That said, I'm excited to announce that Logan Kilpatrick has officially joined our advisory board. He brings a breadth of knowledge having been the head of developer relations most recently at OpenAI. Logan is one of the best at enabling thousands of developers building on top of AI, so we're excited to have him onboard.
