AI & Web3 Level Up Relationships

Abstract

Life on Earth is essentially a story of connections and collaboration. The way we have collaborated over time is largely down to value systems and it is these same value systems that determine how we collaborate with AI. But it’s not just value systems that may hold us back. Cooperation and competition have always been different sides of the same “human” coin. It is our ability to cooperate that has been the key to our survival and prosperity as a species. But that cooperation has always had its limits. This chapter explores how those limits can be transcended if AI is built from second tier value systems on decentralised web3 ecosystems and not centralised top-down hierarchies. Web3 already supports a multi-TRILLION dollar ecosystem and its architecture facilitates our collective evolution up the values spiral. In other words, web3 together with AI could facilitate human evolution as it removes some of the hurdles that prevent us from mutually beneficial collaboration at scale. In this new economy the winners will be those who choose to embrace web3 and AI in some type of hybrid work style.
