AI on the Blockchain: Dystopian or Utopian Future?
AI Girl. Artificial Intelligence (AI) on the Blockchain - It may sound like the beginning of a Cypress Hill song, but could the blockchain create a world where the blockchain is in control of artificially intelligent life?

A society without paper money might be a less equitable society. Those lacking digital connectivity would suffer. In Sweden, cash in circulation represents only 1% of the country’s gross domestic product, and some experts predict the nation will go “totally cashless” by 2023.
