The Arweave in Asia 2024 conference concluded last month with resounding success, showcasing the dynamic potential and expansive opportunities within the Arweave ecosystem. Master Li, the founder of AO Games, delved into AO’s core philosophy and its ambitious roadmap for the future of AO Games. Li particularly highlighted the critical elements that will attract developers to the AO ecosystem and emphasized the technological innovations and breakthroughs AO brings to the world of internet content platforms. He also introduced an innovative concept—“AI Digital Life as an Account”—which he explained would enable the perpetual existence and functionality of AI life forms. The integration of Web3, AI, and gaming has undoubtedly injected new energy and possibilities into the future of AO Games.

The AO testnet has been running for nearly six months now, with an increasing number of applications and a continuously flourishing ecosystem. Many developers originally from the EVM ecosystem, including myself, are gradually trying to use AO to build products. During development, many developers still stick to Ethereum's programming mindset and habits, directly treating processes as smart contracts. Of course, there's nothing wrong with this approach. Implementations like token blueprints and atomic assets can essentially be directly mapped to ERC-20 and ERC-721. It's fair to say that most process code on AO looks very much like smart contracts.
