An Updated Survey on the Convergence of Distributed Ledger Technology and Artificial Intelligence: Current State, Major Challenges and Future Direction

In recent times, Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) have become two of the most discussed sectors in Information Technology, with each having made a major impact. This has generated space for further innovation to occur convergence technologies. this paper, we gather, analyse, present detailed review AI DLT vice versa manner. We how is impacts by focusing on AI-based consensus algorithms, smart contract security, selfish mining, decentralized coordination, fairness, non-fungible tokens, finance, exchanges, autonomous organizations, blockchain oracles. terms impact AI, areas covered include data privacy, explainable contract-based AIs, parachains, neural networks, Internet Things, 5G technology markets, sharing. Furthermore, identify research gaps discuss open challenges developing future directions.
