Decentralized web apps can be created without traditional IT such as cloud services, and without platform software such as databases. Hosted apps are immune to traditional cyber attacks and highly resilient. The network supports creation of advanced Web3 functionalities, runs AI, and provides a stack for advanced self-writing applications (no code development using AI). TCP/IP connects software. ICP hosts software. AI writes software.
