From NFT, metaverse to generative AI, Story Protocol's story has always been on the main theme.

Author: Haotian

The programmable IP project @StoryProtocol, which has been led by @a16z twice, seems to have never given up its vision of building an on-chain artistic renaissance for "creators", even after experiencing two major narrative waves of NFT image artists and metaverse digital virtual worlds. Story Protocol has always been trying to solve problems such as "copyright protection, royalty distribution, data privacy", and now, with the prosperity of generative AI, the demand for the programmable IP layer has become more rigid. Why?

1) A large number of generative AI tools have emerged, including Dall-E, Stable Diffusion, Midjourney, etc. Users can generate various artistic and photographic style images by simply inputting simple text prompts. However, the large model training process behind this raises concerns, such as:

• Does the original artwork data capture comply with copyright protection standards?
• Will the pursuit of differentiated large models break legal and moral boundaries in fine-tuning scenarios?
• Will the "blurring" of content ownership and copyright boundaries when AI samples and combines original materials harm the interests of creators, and so on.

2) Unlike the on-chain virtual world that NFT and metaverse are trying to build, each iteration and evolution of generative AI must be based on large-scale data training. Therefore, data privacy infringement and copyright disputes will be inevitable. Relying solely on unilateral restrictions from centralized organizations such as Open AI seems to alleviate some of the problems, but it also sacrifices the faster development of generative AI.

Equipping a modular programmable IP layer for generative AI to expand the data resource library while building complex on-chain infrastructure for IP accounting, rights confirmation, circulation, etc., may be a powerful supplement to the problems of data abuse and standards in large model training.

3) As shown in the following text, Story Protocol provides a Licensing Module, Royalty Module, Dispute Module, etc. for creator IP. When a user's data assets are tokenized on Story Protocol, they will have a series of modular components, thereby achieving various functional protections for on-chain IP.

Overall, Story Protocol's vision is too grand, which makes its technological application seem more tortuous and challenging, but fortunately, from NFT, metaverse to generative AI, the story that Story Protocol wants to tell has always been on the main theme. The narrative is changing, but the problems it wants to solve have always been the main demand, and it is becoming more and more rigid.

In short, in terms of intellectual property protection, the story that Story Protocol wants to continue writing is still full of unknowns. However, the development of the AI+Crypto track is not isolated, and AI as a Narrative will play a key role in the industry's development process in the future.

Decentralized AI computing power aggregation platform, decentralized verifiable computing reasoning services, decentralized digital property IP protection services, and decentralized DePIN mining services, and other directions are continuously seeing representative products and protocols emerge. The combination and superposition of these will add more weight to the existence of AI for Crypto Buff.
