Aptos Labs partners with Microsoft to promote the innovative integration of Web3 and AI

Aptos Labs recently announced a multi-year strategic partnership with tech giant Microsoft, aimed at opening new horizons for exploration and development in the Web3 space, providing more resources and opportunities for innovators. This collaboration is built on Aptos's relentless pursuit of a decentralized, user-centered internet vision over the past five years.

The core of this collaboration lies in a developer-first design philosophy, providing developers with secure and reliable infrastructure, allowing them to focus on optimizing user experience and driving consumer-facing innovation.

The specific collaboration content includes the deployment of new products that integrate AI and blockchain technology using Microsoft's infrastructure. Among them, a new chatbot called Aptos Assistant will be a key project, which will answer users' questions about the Aptos ecosystem and provide resource support for developers of smart contracts and decentralized applications.

In addition, Aptos has integrated its native programming language Move into an AI programming assistant tool to support functionalities such as "contract development, unit testing, formatting, and proof program specifications." This initiative will significantly enhance development efficiency and code quality.

The CEO of Aptos Labs stated: "The rapid integration of AI and blockchain technology is primarily due to the fact that they are both groundbreaking technological breakthroughs that are profoundly influencing the evolution of the internet and the shaping of society."

The General Manager of Microsoft's AI and Emerging Technologies department also stated: "By combining Aptos Labs' technology with our AI service capabilities, our goal is to democratize the use of blockchain, enabling users to seamlessly connect to the Web3 world, while allowing innovators to leverage AI to develop exciting decentralized applications."

Both parties also agreed to explore blockchain-based financial service products, including asset tokenization, payments, and central bank digital currencies, to expand the application scenarios of blockchain. To enhance network security, Aptos will run validation nodes on Microsoft Cloud Services.

It is worth mentioning that Aptos is renowned for its outstanding performance, being one of the blockchains in the current market with the lowest latency and the highest throughput, with a transaction completion time (TTF) of less than one second, setting a new industry standard. In July of this year, Aptos's weekly transaction volume exceeded 4.9 million and has shown a continuous upward trend. Since its autonomous launch, with strong support from the community, Aptos has been undergoing blockchain upgrades almost every month, constantly refreshing industry benchmarks while providing comprehensive support to developers globally.

This strategic cooperation will undoubtedly inject new vitality into the integrated development of Web3 and AI, and we look forward to seeing more innovative applications and solutions emerge in the future.
