[NEAR will hire artificial intelligence engineers as part of its artificial intelligence roadmap]

Layer1 platform NEAR plans to recruit artificial intelligence (AI) engineers in the next 3-6 months as part of its roadmap to build user-owned AI systems. CoinDesk has learned that NEAR’s product team is starting to plan its AI workflow for this period, and the news was revealed to core employees by NEAR co-founder Illia Polosukhin during a virtual city meeting.

As the intersection of AI and blockchain becomes increasingly popular, NEAR is working hard to take the lead in this industry. Polosukhin participated in a panel on "Transformational AI" at last month's Nivida conference, during which the price of the NEAR token doubled.

The NEAR team has extensive experience in the AI ​​industry. Polosukhin is not only an artificial intelligence researcher and software engineer, but also co-developed the "Transformer" architecture that drives generative AI systems such as ChatGPT.

NEAR, which is scheduled to be announced in May, will share AI-related information through the Near.ai website. As a non-profit and decentralized platform, NEAR believes that it has a unique advantage in promoting open source AI, and believes that its token economy can create value in an open, permissionless ecosystem, rather than relying on revenue like a for-profit company. Mainly motivation.

NEAR has been promoting its "chain abstraction" concept in recent months, aiming to optimize the crypto user experience by reducing barriers in multi-chain environments. According to information obtained by CoinDesk, the introduction of AI is expected to speed up development and simplify operations, further supporting NEAR in achieving its core mission.
