Helius CEO Mert stated in an article on the X platform that AI gives Solana a significant competitive advantage. Solana's programming model is more secure for AI compared to the EVM's interface model. On Solana, most operations (especially core functions like token creation, exchange, and movement) do not require writing new contracts. This means developers can reuse existing pipelines on the client side without needing new security audits, thus improving development speed. Developers can integrate existing pipelines, exchanges, and token hooks using a few hints. Furthermore, Solana's previous disadvantage of higher contract writing difficulty due to Rust's lower abstraction level has been effectively compensated for by AI. He predicts that several startups with valuations of $1 billion to $10 billion will emerge on Solana this year.
