The Convergence of AI & Blockchain
The Convergence Thesis We strongly that blockchain technology will prove as the key underlying technology stack for the technologies that emerge with numerous applications on top of it. This view has been influenced by Outlier Ventures' Jamie Burke, who coined the term'convergence'. Blockchain provides an infrastructure for emergent trends like; IoT, 3D Printing, Autonomous Robotics (drones) to scale securely. More specifically, there are a handful of emerging technologies that hold the most promise for this blockchain-enabled convergence: - Artificial Intelligence (AI) - The Internet of Things (IoT) - Autonomous Robotics (Drones & Autonomous Vehicles) - Virtual Reality (VR) & Augmented Reality (AR) - 3D Printing It is the ability of blockchains to enable automated and intelligent M2M (machine-to-machine) networks that could transform design & manufacturing, distribution & logistics as well as retail & commerce. This will impact almost every supply chain from health to construction and manufacturing.
