According to CoinDesk, Layer N, an Ethereum StateNet designed as a network of custom VMs, has announced the launch of AI Functions. This tool allows developers to integrate AI inference and AI use cases within their applications. The launch is in partnership with Modulus Labs, a company focused on bringing AI on-chain through ZK technology. Some examples of use cases include replacing AMMs with more sophisticated models, yield optimization strategies, gaming, AI crypto agents, and AI arbitration. The team envisions a prediction market that includes AI-based arbitration of event outcomes, reducing the risk of consensus collusion.
Layer N's AI Functions feature is part of Protocol Village, a regular feature of The Protocol, a weekly newsletter exploring the technology behind crypto. Project teams can submit updates, and readers can sign up to receive the newsletter in their inbox every Wednesday. The Protocol also offers a weekly podcast, edited by Bradley Keoun.
