From "Raise Shrimp for Everyone" to Smart Economy, the 2026 Hong Kong Web3 Carnival AIxWeb3 Summit Agenda Revealed!

When an AI Agent makes the interface “disappear,” what is the ultimate form of human-computer interaction? Does AI really need Web3?

OpenClaw’s sudden breakout has kicked off a craze of “everyone raising shrimp.” And as the “intelligent emergence” of artificial intelligence directly meets Web3’s “trust machine,” what we’re seeing isn’t just a stacking of technologies—it’s a deep-rooted revolution about value creation, distribution, and reevaluation. When an AI Agent makes the interface “disappear,” what is the ultimate form of human-computer interaction? Does AI really need Web3?

On the afternoon of April 20, 2026, at the Hong Kong Web3 Carnival venue, a·Feng will host the themed forum “Web3×AI: Value Rebuilding in the Intelligent Era,” bringing together pioneering forces from around the world in the fields of AI and Web3. From “shrimp rumors” at the cutting edge of Silicon Valley, to the underlying logic of enterprise practice; from hands-on experience in secure collaboration, to future rehearsals of human-AI co-existence—this event will deliver hard-hitting breakdowns and forward-looking insights, as we explore new possibilities for the integration of Web3 and AI in the intelligent age.

Silicon Valley AI tech influencer Lang Hanwei will reveal what Silicon Valley is doing with shrimp, taking you through overseas “wild” frontier trends from the unique perspective of a tech creator. John, Asia-Pacific head of TON Foundation, will share innovative explorations of AI and TON ecosystem synergy. Miguel Palencia, co-founder of Qtum, will break down how to drive AI and Web3 from the “lab” to the “application stage,” building an efficient collaboration technical bridge for developers and enterprises.

Cobo co-founder and CTO Changhao Jiang will, based on hands-on experience, get into the collaboration of Web3 security and AI, safeguarding the steady forward path of a converged ecosystem. MaxQuant CEO Jeffery Zeng will focus on innovative AI applications in asset analysis and risk control, helping you see new value arising from the fusion of finance and technology. Adrian Brink, co-founder of Anoma, will also discuss the future blueprint of the symbiosis of AI and Web3, leading decentralized ecosystems to new heights of intelligence.

In addition to keynote speeches that directly target pain points, a high-quality panel discussion will bring together industry elites to discuss the core issues surrounding the integration of AI and Web3 today.

On one side is AI’s centralized reliance on data, compute power, and models. On the other side is Web3’s pursuit of decentralization, privacy, and on-chain proof of ownership. Are the two naturally complementary, or is it a “forced match”? Hosted by He Xiaoyang, CEO of Gen Labs Limited, with Keywolf—partner and product lead at SlowMist Technology—alongside guests including Michael Yung, Google Cloud strategic advisor, and others, they will jointly take part in the panel discussion titled “Does AI Really Need Web3?” From data privacy and decentralizing compute power to value attribution and proof of ownership, they will break down the complementary space between AI and Web3, explore possible paths from “technology stacking” to “value symbiosis,” and interpret a brand-new turn in Web3 security in the AI era.

As AI Agents accelerate and permeate every industry, human-computer interaction is entering a “disappearing interface” revolution. From GUI—“you click, I search”—to dialogue interfaces—“you say, I do”—and then to autonomous Agents—“you want, I handle”—what exactly does the ultimate form of human-computer interaction look like? Guests including Zolo Xiong, co-founder of Deep Tide TechFlow; KK, COO of Virtuals Protocol; Cindy Shi, CMO of Kite AI; Bob, CEO of Questflow, and others will discuss topics such as AI Agent autonomy, user incentives, and experience. They will dissect how AI Agents break the boundaries of traditional human-computer interaction, and reconstruct an entirely new paradigm for production, daily life, and industrial operations.

Value rebuilding in the intelligent era never waits for observers; the best opportunities always belong to those who are present. This time, alongside top global tech guests, cut through the mist of technology, decode the core code of how Web3 and AI converge, and explore new possibilities for value in the intelligent age.
