PANews September 19th news, according to Near co-founder Ilia Polosukhin on the Rollup TV podcast, Near AI will launch an encrypted chat platform this month or early next month, aiming to replace existing chat tools such as ChatGPT. This product ensures user data privacy through end-to-end encryption technology, allowing users to provide data decryption permissions in a controlled environment, further improving the security and personalized experience of AI services. In addition, the platform will also serve as a developer tool to support new applications to access data contexts based on user permissions, promoting the rapid development of new applications. At the same time, NEAR is positioned as "AI blockchain" and has developed frameworks such as Shade Agents to enable autonomous robots to operate across chains and protect data privacy. Shade Agents combines Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) and NEAR decentralized key management technology to support proxy cross-chain transactions, interaction with AI models, management of assets and privacy protection computing, combining the flexibility of Web2 and the verifiability of Web3. According to OKX market data, NEAR rose 11.6% in 24 hours and is now quoted at US$3.25. Previously, the NEAR Foundation has established an AI R&D laboratory to focus on developing AI developer tools.
