Ecosystem Education
outprog blog post - "Realizing the Future of AI on AO: A True Web3 AI".
AI on AO is a tangible reality that can be integrated into any type of application within the ecosystem.
AO's computing power can meet the computing needs of AI: smart finance, AI NPCs in the metaverse, and decentralized trusted GPU networks such as Apus.
AI is not only being realized, but also becoming a decentralized, permissionless artificial intelligence market that can be called anywhere on AO.

Akord blog post - "$160m+ of Solana's top NFTs are at risk on centralised cloud services".
Akord analyzed the storage usage of 20 NFT projects on Solana with a total value of over $250 million.
50% of project metadata and assets are stored on centralized cloud services.
30% of projects use Arweave to store metadata and images.
20% of projects use IPFS or other decentralized storage solutions.
https://x.com/AkordTeam/status/1803380632854102301
Akord tweets show IPFS vs Arweave vs Akord to illustrate the necessity of Akord.
Arweave is a very powerful storage primitive, but users need convenient tools to make better use of it.
Akord's user-friendly interface and core functions make it easier to protect data on Arweave.

Sam: Global shared state was a bad meme. The answer for scaling services is the same as it always has been: Parallelize compute and pass messages. This is @aoTheComputer.
