NEAR Protocol, a blockchain platform co-founded by former Google researcher and Transformer paper co-author, is enhancing its AI use case capabilities. The platform, known for its high speed and low cost, utilizes a feature called "intents" to simplify blockchain transactions across multiple chains. This innovation has gained traction, with recent integrations on next-generation smart contract platforms like Sui Network. These advancements aim to improve user experience and facilitate broader adoption of blockchain technology.
