Researchers have developed a benchmarking framework to assess whether artificial intelligence (AI) can generate decentralized finance (DeFi) smart contracts that are efficient and cost-effective, lowering computational costs, known jargonistically as “gas.” The work might address a key problem seen in blockchain-based financial systems.Researchers have developed a benchmarking framework to assess whether artificial intelligence (AI) can generate decentralized finance (DeFi) smart contracts that are efficient and cost-effective, lowering computational costs, known jargonistically as “gas.” The work might address a key problem seen in blockchain-based financial systems.Business[#item_full_content]
