This ambitious initiative will evaluate Generative AI tools and techniques to identify suitable models and prompting strategies for financial asset workflows.
This effort will focus on AI-driven smart contract creation and end-to-end asset servicing. The collaboration combines Platonic's cutting-edge blockchain infrastructure expertise with MIT's Geospatial Data Center research leadership in generative AI.
'At Platonic, we're building the infrastructure for autonomous, intelligent markets-where assets are programmable and intelligent," said Violet Abtahi, Founder and CEO of Platonic. 'This initiative is one part of that vision, focused on applying generative AI to smart contract creation and asset servicing. Our collaboration with MIT's Geospatial Data Center accelerates our mission to research how to modernize financial infrastructure and unlock the power of a truly decentralized economy.'
By automating contract generation and simplifying operational workflows, this initiative aims to increase transparency, reduce costs, and enable smarter, data-driven decision-making across capital markets.
'Financial institutions have long struggled to modernize legacy systems,' said Abel Sanchez, Executive Director, MIT's Geospatial Data Center. 'Leveraging blockchain and generative AI offers a practical and tangible path forward—moving capital markets from incremental promises to real digital transformation.'
This collaboration is a major step toward Platonic's broader vision for autonomous finance-a future where assets are intelligent, self-executing, and able to interact across a global, interoperable, digital ecosystem.
