- It lets you access the blockchain through a chatbot
- Through the plugin you can check the balance as well as conduct a transaction
- Solana Foundation will also give $1 million in grants to develop startups in the intersection of blockchain and AI
Solana Labs announced an open-source plugin for ChatGPT chatbot yesterday, April 25. The service allows you to interact with the blockchain directly through the software.
The source code for the plugin is available on GitHub. With it, the user will be able to check the wallet balance, conduct transactions, and even transfer NFTs.
The screenshot attached to the Solana Labs publication shows the user requesting a list of tokens at a specific address. Below are a few commenters who have managed to test the plugin.
Such as through it you can view statistics on TPS and average ping. But so far the service only offers a maximum frame of 6 hours, which is not always convenient.
The launch of this plugin can be seen as Solana’s first step towards finding effective synergies between AI and blockchain technology.
Also, the Network Development Foundation announced that it will award $1 million in grants to startups in the field.
“Solana’s high performance and scalability provide a unique opportunity to bring entirely new ideas to life with AI.
This grant program is designed to encourage our community to explore new uses for the technology,” says Solana Foundation.
We reported earlier that Solana was a partner in Google Cloud’s new initiative to support promising Web3 startups.
