As an increasing number of blockchains are exploring the possibility of integrating artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities into their operations, solana says it has become the first layer-1 blockchain to roll out the ChatGPT plugin for its users.
one in statementThe functionality was developed by Solana Labs, the Solana Foundation said, and the roll-out of the plugin coincides with a strategic grants and accelerator program focused on AI development and growth on the blockchain. The AI Accelerator Program is intended for university students, and the Strategic Grants Program aims to accelerate the use and integration of AI at Solana.
Anatoly Yakovenko, co-founder and CEO of Solana, said, “Every developer building a consumer-oriented app should be thinking about how their app is being interacted with through an AI model because this is what a computer is supposed to do. There is a new paradigm of telling.” Solana Labs. “AI will make Solana more useful and understandable.”
At first, me InterviewYakovenko said that he believes that “the natural language interface that ChatGPT enables is interesting and nice. It seems to be as big a change as it was when Microsoft Windows and the computer mouse were first introduced”. So now we’re going with reasonably well-functioning text-based interfaces that can perform complex actions.
“Every developer building consumer-oriented apps should be thinking about how their apps are being interacted with through AI models because this is a new paradigm for telling computers what to do,” he said.
According to the Solana Foundation, the ChatGPT plugin for Solana is designed to serve “as a reference to make it easier to understand Solana data and protocols, or surface data about Solana’s computing infrastructure and DeFi projects”. .
Users can use the plugin to buy NFTs, transfer tokens, observe transactions, interpret public ledger data, as well as identify NFT collections by floor price.
more money for projects
The Solana Foundation also said it has decided to increase the amount available in its AI-focused strategic grant program from an initial $1 million to $10 million.
“The grant program aims to encourage the ecosystem to explore new use cases for machine learning models that interact with the Solana protocol in secure and interpretable ways. The rolling grant program has already received 50 applications, According to the statement.
Based in Zug, Switzerland, the Solana Foundation is a non-profit organization that oversees the decentralization, adoption, and security of the Solana Network.
Solana Labs, headquartered in San Francisco, USA, is a tech company, creator of Web3 projects, developer of open source software, and author and publisher of a validator client for Solana.
