Summary

Both AI and blockchain are major technologies that are catalyzing the pace of innovation. The combination of these two technologies is expected to redesign the whole industrial paradigm. This chapter has articulated how we can empower blockchain and its decentralized applications using various AI techniques and models. We covered the evolution of applications and contrasted different types. We also explained the latest problems caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and discussed how to tackle these problems by taking contact tracing as an example use case. We covered the problem statement, the solution approach, and the technical architecture in order to develop a sample contact tracing application using the DIApp design pattern. We also highlighted the tools needed to test each solution component and make it more robust. Finally, we explained how to sign up for each of the dependent services used by the solution. This chapter has enabled you to develop a paradigm of thinking where...
