Had not examined the relationship here, worth an a deeper look.  AGI progress is suggested.

Full-stack AI solution SingularityNET is switching the Ethereum blockchain for peer-reviewed rival Cardano.   By Ryan Daws | October 1, 2020 | TechForge Media

One of the brightest and most respected minds in AI leads the SingularityNET project, Dr Ben Goertzel.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ben_Goertzel  

“Current speed and cost issues with the Ethereum blockchain have increased the urgency of exploring alternatives for SingluarityNET’s blockchain underpinning,” says Goertzel.

“The ambitious Ethereum 2.0 design holds promise but the timing of rollout of different aspects of this next-generation Ethereum remains unclear, along with many of the practical particulars.“ SingularityNET claims that Cardano has now reached a level of maturity which makes it possible to port such a complex project to the new blockchain. Back in August, Goertzel gave a talk at the Cardano Summit on why functional programming – enabled by Cardano’s Haskell and new Plutus languages – is invaluable for blockchain-based AI:... '
