Ask HN: Can Artificial Intelligence be used to mine Ethereum faster?
Is that possible to improve mining eth hit rate with machine learning? Mine with AI faster?
In order to mine some eth, you have to be able to solve the KECCAK-256 hash, and the difficulty is modified by setting a number of prefixed 0's that have to be present in the solution.
This is done by hashing strings, and eventually you will get an acceptable hash, but there is not a predictable relationship between the input string and the output hash, if there was, the entire process would be useless and blockchains wouldn't work.
In order for AI to be able to make mining faster, the Deep network would have to be able to take the hash and predict the input string, but this is impossible
