A world first: a demonstration of AI running *on* blockchain as a smart contract 🧠⚡️ The Internet Computer is used – the world's first 3rd gen. blockchain #ICP. AI will become the beating heart of our web3, multi-chain world, and this is only my first demo. Code will follow shortly. This is running on DFINITY's Internet Computer testnet, but you'll be able to take the code and run it on the public network as the NNS is expected to up the per-transaction instruction limit in the coming days. Some important notes. The inference engine used has not been optimized, and we will show vastly greater efficiency in subsequent demos, where the AI runs even faster, and consumes less gas/cycles. We will also propose to the NNS that smart contracts have access to SIMD instructions – which we have determined are deterministic – unlocking vastly more speed and efficiency. Lastly, currently the actor smart contracts ICP hosts run inside a 32 bit environment, which limits their main memory to 4GB. Within the next couple of months, we expect the Internet Computer to move to a 64 bit environment, allowing smart contract memory limits to be raised much higher – allowing for models with far more parameters, and thus power, to be run. Those of you who have followed my posts know that hardware optimization support is planned. Firstly this will involve WASM smart contracts shipping out matrices for processing by the CPUs on existing node machines (another advantage of the Internet Computer running on sovereign node hardware). Secondly, we plan to propose a new public node machine specification, which node providers can build to, for use in subnets specialized for hosting AI smart contracts, in which each machine will incorporate several GPUs. Naturally, this will be packaged with other technological developments that ensure smart contract determinism. This is part of our mission to enable powerful LLMs to run as smart contracts on the Internet Computer – in a forms that are tamperproof, unstoppable, and optionally autonomous (including under the exclusive control of DAOs). Our vision: you will be able to have a chat with a smart contract. A smart contract will be able to coordinate your organization (see my earlier tweet about a "Delphi"). ICP smart contracts will be able to audit Ethereum smart contracts, kitemarking those without backdoors and reentrancy bugs. And smart contracts will be able to do KYC autonmously, matching faces to driving licenses, and more. We will deliver new SDK enhancements, and work with partners, to turbocharge crypto AI developers. Secure and unstoppable AI and third generation blockchain will be two sides of the same coin. Security and AI will be indivisible. AI models will be traded as NFTs. Thanks to Internet Computer's chain key (trustless multi-chain) capabilities, all blockchains will be able to leverage AI smart contracts. The future is beyond exciting. Thanks for watching. Can't wait to give you more demos!

I CANT!!!!! Prompt: An extreme close-up of an gray-haired man with a beard in his 60s, he is deep in thought pondering the history of the universe as he sits at a cafe in Paris, his eyes focus on people offscreen as they walk as he sits mostly motionless, he is dressed in a wool coat suit coat with a button-down shirt , he wears a brown beret and glasses and has a very professorial appearance, and the end he offers a subtle closed-mouth smile as if he found the answer to the mystery of life, the lighting is very cinematic with the golden light and the Parisian streets and city in the background, depth of field, cinematic 35mm film.

HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE??? @OpenAI's newest text-to-video model, Sora, might actually win me back! Prompt: The camera rotates around a large stack of vintage televisions all showing different programs — 1950s sci-fi movies, horror movies, news, static, a 1970s sitcom, etc, set inside a large New York museum gallery.

This is wild: watch this guy go around in the Matrix Awakens (!) game explaining to AI NPCs they’re in a simulation. Remember, these are not scripted. They're not human voices. And this is not "some day", this is in Unity/Unreal now. Video games are about to be filled with AI NPCs indistinguishable from humans. Also trippy: watch AI NPCs go around trying to convince other NPCs they're in a simulation. Soon, there will be levels upon levels of simulated AI NPC worlds - and most of these AI NPCs ("fake people") will probably think they're in base reality, like most humans do. From @ReplicaStudios: "NPCs controlled by AI will dynamically respond to the player's voice in real time. Characters will change their dialogue, emotional tone and body gestures in response to how the player addresses them." “You're not really real.” “That's… hard to process. Does this mean I don't exist?” “You exist. Sort of.” “What does that mean?? Am I real or not?” “It means that after I close this game, you don't exist.” “Oh… so I'm only here for as long as the game is running. That's… difficult to comprehend.”
