At the end of November 2022, the release of GPT-3.5 sparked global interest, prompting many in the crypto industry to consider the possibilities of integrating AI with web3. Over the past year, the concept of Web3 + AI has become a trend, with the consensus that "blockchain addresses issues of production relations, while AI solves problems of productivity."

From November to early December this year (2024), the Web3 + AI sector remained hot. From Elon Musk's xAI to Kai-Fu Lee's "Zero One Everything," from the OpenAI drama to Vitalik Buterin's techno-optimism and d/acc initiative, the consensus on decentralized AI has once again led to widespread growth in AI concept projects. As a celebrity market maker, DWF Labs also expressed on X (formerly Twitter) their keen interest in supporting and investing in decentralized AI projects, seeking cooperation with relevant teams.

Last December, Foresight News compiled a list of 20 financing projects related to AI technology in 2022. Today, as part of its year-end series, Foresight News has conducted a comprehensive review of the Web3 + AI sector. According to the review author's continuously updated statistics, there are at least 140 Web3 + AI concept projects in the industry, with 85 having already issued tokens and some planning to issue tokens next year. 

These 140 projects cover a wide range, including infrastructure, data, prediction markets, computing and computational power, education, DeFi and cross-chain, security, NFT /gaming/metaverse, search engines, social and creator economy, AI chatbots, DID and messaging, governance, healthcare, trading bots and more. Among these, there are as many as 30 infrastructure projects; 26 NFT, gaming and metaverse projects; and over 10 projects each in data, computing and AI chatbots.

Notably, the author found that most Web3 + AI concept projects have solid fundamentals, with teams that are practical in their work and operations. Many are backed by well-known VCs such as a16z crypto, Jump Crypto, Hashed, DWF Labs, Foresight Ventures, HashKey Capital, Binance Labs, CoinFund, IOSG Ventures, SNZ, Variant, 1kx, Bankless Ventures, Hash Global, Animoca Brands, Coinbase Ventures, Galaxy Digital, Sequoia Capital, GSR Ventures and Dragonfly.
