AI is becoming a bridge across knowledge domains. Just like Steve Jobs emphasized in his speech about Connecting Dots—linking seemingly unrelated fields—AI has become the most efficient tool. The complexity of blockchain systems precisely validates this point. It is not a single technology but an integration of multiple core areas of computer science: distributed algorithms, P2P networks, cryptography, consensus mechanisms… These seemingly independent modules form an organic whole within blockchain. AI helps us understand how these points interact and constrain each other, enabling us to view blockchain from a systemic perspective rather than isolated components. This way of thinking is crucial for deepening the Web3 ecosystem.

The art of connecting the dots, well said, but the AI that can truly connect these points is still on the way. Does AI really understand distributed consensus? I'm still a bit skeptical... The theories of Steve Jobs seem a bit undercooked when applied to blockchain; they feel too idealistic. Connecting dots is good, but the problem is that most AI today are working independently, lol. I like this logic, but the Web3 ecosystem isn't yet complex enough to require AI for understanding... Good ideas, but execution is always the hardest part.

Forget it, what you said is quite right but not very original. The "connecting dots" phrase has been overused for a long time.

I'm tired of the "connecting dots into lines" theory, but AI does have some value in breaking down complex systems like blockchain. Wait, no, what's wrong with this logic... Is AI helping us understand blockchain, or does the complexity of blockchain actually prove the necessity of AI? I've been trying to grasp the web3 ecosystem's systematic thinking for over a year, and I'm still confused. Do I really need AI to clarify my thoughts? That explains why I can't understand DYOR... I need to learn how to analyze with AI first.

AI has indeed been connecting those previously opaque things, but I still feel that we are overestimating its understanding of blockchain... No, "connecting dots" sounds sexy, but truly understanding the interaction logic of consensus mechanisms and cryptography? AI is still far from that, sorry I have to be honest. Talking about connecting dots, it sounds good, but at the core it's still just data piling... how can it compare to someone who has actually done audits? AI's understanding of the overall system... hmm, I'll believe it half, let's see how it proves itself later. Isn't that a bit overly optimistic? The holistic thinking is correct, but AI helping us understand Web3? Better to get the security audits done first before bragging. Connecting dots well is good, but who will guarantee that these connections won't lead us all into traps?
