surprised no one has mentioned this but AI gives Solana development a big edge over others why? because Solana's program model is much safer for AI than EVM's interface model on Solana, you do not need to write a new contract for most things and especially not core functions like creating/swapping/moving tokens meaning you can reuse existing pipes on the client without requiring new security audits and move much, much faster you can integrate existing pipelines, swaps, token hooks within basically a few prompts and even if you needed to write a contract, a huge thing holding back Solana was how difficult it is to write contract code since Solidity is much easier to grok than nuances of Rust on Solana since the latter is a much lower level of abstraction that gap is also now effectively reduced if you reason up from these, it's hard not to see how we don't see at least several more 9-10 digit startups on Solana this year
