Simple definition
Digital assets are items of value that exist online, such as crypto tokens, NFTs, and digital collectibles. AI is now used to explain them, create them, and, sadly, to scam people around them.
How it works
- AI tools can summarise news or explain unfamiliar terms.
- AI can create digital art or content that becomes a digital asset.
- Scammers also use AI to make fake endorsements and fake websites.
Everyday example
In real life
Someone uses AI to summarise a long article about a token, then checks the claims in the original sources.
