Many generative AI tools seem to possess the power of prediction. Conversational AI chatbots like ChatGPT can suggest the next verse in a song or poem. Software like DALL-E or Midjourney can create original art or realistic images from natural language descriptions. Code completion tools like GitHub Copilot can recommend the next few lines of code. But generative AI is not predictive AI.

At first glance, AI and blockchain seem like completely disparate realms. For instance, blockchain emphasises decentralisation but suffers from constrained memory and throughput rates. On the other hand, AI thrives on massive datasets and demands high-performance computing. To elaborate, Machine learning (ML) models – especially deep learning networks – require enormous amounts of data to train effectively, often relying on powerful GPUs or specialised hardware to process this information quickl

Domain Name System (DNS) is rightly celebrated as the protocol that makes the internet possible. DNS is known as the phonebook of the internet because it translates domain names to IP addresses so browsers can load internet resources. It usually works sufficiently enough that most network teams barely pause to think about it. Yet DNS also has the dubious distinction of being the protocol that breaks the internet or slows it down. “ It’s always DNS” isn’t just a meme or a
