Is AI going to affect the popularity of bitcoin in any way ? Will it have positive effect or negative effect ? Or there is no correlation at all between the two ?
Maybe if AI is used to defame Bitcoin or the other way around, to make Bitcoin more famous. Sure, that might be possible. If we take a look at how companies are using AI for marketing and shilling their products, we could learn how Bitcoin popularity can be influenced by using AI.
But I think that since there has been no current correlation, or any effect on Bitcoin worth mentioning, things will probably stay the same.
Bitcoin is open source, so there is no conspiracy abound. There are those who understand it and those who do not.
