What is AI³ Growth Journey

"AI is eating software, Web3 is restructuring production relationships." While Vitalik and Sam Altman have yet to shake hands at Davos, code and smart contracts are already reshaping the world's operating rules. At this moment, a developer awakening movement spanning the Asia-Pacific is about to embark!

AI³ Growth Journey is an AI+Web3 series of activities jointly launched by OpenBuild and Weekly Hackathon. Starting from March, over the next 10 months, we will conduct online collaborative learning each month based on specific themes/ecosystems in the AI + Web3 field, and randomly select hotspot cities to hold offline Mini-Hackathons, guiding developers to produce project applications related to specific themes/ecosystems.

Why is the Fusion of AI and Web3 So Important?

The convergence of AI and Web3 is creating entirely new possibilities:

Lowering Technical Barriers: AI tools make writing complex smart contracts simpler
Optimizing Development Efficiency: Automating code generation, testing, and auditing processes
Expanding Application Scenarios: Enabling autonomous agents, on-chain data analysis, personalized experiences
Empowering DAO Governance: Improving collaboration efficiency and collective decision-making quality

This fusion provides entry opportunities for participants of all technical levels, whether you're an experienced blockchain developer or a newcomer just starting to explore.

Two Target Audiences

Our content is carefully designed for two types of developers:

💡 Developers Unfamiliar with Web3

If you're an AI engineer, Web2 developer, or curious about the blockchain world, we'll help you:

Understand the fundamentals of blockchain and smart contracts
Quickly master Web3 technologies like Solidity using AI tools
Build your first decentralized application

You will learn:

Understanding Web3 Fundamentals: Core principles of blockchain, smart contracts, and decentralized applications
Mastering Basic Tools: How to use wallets and interact with blockchain
Applying AI Programming Assistants: Using AI tools (like Cursor, Copilot) to quickly learn and write smart contracts
Building Simple Applications: Constructing your first Web3 application from scratch

💎 Web3 Developers Seeking AI Empowerment

If you're already familiar with blockchain development but want to leverage AI to improve efficiency, we'll help you:

Integrate AI code assistants into smart contract development workflows
Optimize complex contract design and auditing processes
Explore innovative application scenarios for AI+Web3

You will learn:

Annual Activity Planning

In this program, we will explore different AI+Web3 themes each month:

Write Smart Contract with AI Code Assistant - Using AI code assistants (like Cursor, Copilot) to write smart contracts
How to write a professional AI Prompt - Professional AI prompt engineering
Build with Web3 AI Agent - Building Web3 AI agents (ai16z, virtuals, etc.)
OnChain Data Insight with AI - Using AI to analyze on-chain data
No code Dapps - No-code decentralized application development
AI Gaming / AIGC in Web3 - AI gaming and AIGC in Web3

Each theme includes online workshops and offline Mini-Hackathons to help you comprehensively master skills from theory to practice.
