The ‘Meet the Parents’ Phase for Blockchain and AI is Coming Up

TL;DR

• We’re glad to announce that blockchain and AI are dating again.

• Yesterday, Polygon Labs launched the Polygon Copilot which is a chatbot that provides insights and analytics about Polygon – and is trained on Polygon protocol documentation.

• On Monday, Etherscan released a code reader tool that uses AI to provide users with the ability to retrieve and interpret the source code of a specific contract address (click here for the full walkthrough).

• The killer application that onboards the masses into Web3 may not exist yet, but it’s great to see the creative ways blockchain companies are leveraging AI.

Full Story

If you’ve been a reader of Web3 Daily for a while, you’ll have seen us cover everything from the LUNA crash, to FTX, and the ‘break up’ experienced by the blockchain space – in favor of the hotter, AI space.

(Especially when it comes to funding).

Things were pretty awkward for a while…People were saying blockchain was dead and AI startups were getting funded left and right.

But, after a few dates (i.e. figuring out ways to work well together), we’re glad to announce that blockchain and AI are dating again.

Here’s the latest:

• Yesterday, Polygon Labs launched the Polygon Copilot which is a chatbot that provides insights and analytics about Polygon – and is trained on Polygon protocol documentation.

• Solana Labs has created a plugin that lets users check wallet balances, transfer tokens, and purchase NFTs, all through a chatbot interface.

• On Monday, Etherscan released a code reader tool that uses AI to provide users with the ability to retrieve and interpret the source code of a specific contract address (click here for the full walkthrough).

While all of these companies have strict terms and clearly label their products as ‘Beta,’ that’s the case with all products that are powered by ChatGPT right now.

The killer application that onboards the masses into Web3 may not exist yet, but it’s great to see the creative ways blockchain companies are leveraging AI.

Let’s hope the ‘meet the parents‘ phase goes smoothly.
