Abstract

This paper summarises the intersection of Web3 and AI technologies, synergies between these technologies, and gaps that we suggest exist in the conception of the possible integrations of these technologies. The summary is informed by a comprehensive literature review of current academic and industry papers, analyst reports, and Ethereum research community blogposts. We focus our contribution on the perceived gaps and detail some novel approaches that would benefit the blockchain/Web3 ecosystem. We believe that the overview presented in this paper will help guide researchers interested in the intersection of Web3 and AI technologies.
