Walk into any tech conference today, and you’ll hear buzzwords flying: AI this, blockchain that. But ask anyone about the actual architecture required to integrate these technologies, and you’ll mostly get hand-waving. That’s because while everyone talks about the potential of combining blockchain’s trustless verification with AI’s decision-making capabilities, very few teams have solved the architectural nightmares that come with it.
