I recently heard an interesting reflection on a podcast from a veteran crypto executive about where technology is headed. Basically, he said something that makes sense: right now, we are solving problems to make AI work better, but ideally it will soon be the other way around — that AI helps us solve our own problems. It's a pretty significant shift in perspective if you think about it. The guy mentioned that internet, blockchain, and AI are the three key technologies we need to adopt as an industry. And honestly, from here, he's right. These three are transforming everything — from how we communicate to how we handle value and data. AI, in particular, will be decisive in the coming years. It's not just hype; it's the real direction everything is heading. It's worth paying attention to how this evolves in exchanges and platforms. Gate has quite a bit of activity in these areas if anyone wants to see how technology is being integrated in practice.
