Ethereum (CRYPTO: ETH) creator Vitalik Buterin mapped out on Monday key ways the blockchain could team up with artificial intelligence, detailing four interconnected priorities in a 2×2 framework.
How Ethereum Is Reshaping AI Economies
The first pillar focuses on private, verifiable interactions with AIs, like local large-language models auditing smart contracts or verifying decentralized app transactions without third-party user interfaces.
The next pillar positioned Ethereum as an “economic layer” for AI-related transactions, including API calls, bot hiring, and security deposits.
“The goal here is to enable AIs to interact economically, which makes viable more decentralized AI architectures,” Butering stated.
Buterin also envisaged a scenario in which a local AI model handles complex verifications, such as interpreting formal proofs, auditing contracts locally or proposing transactions on its own. He argued that Ethereum provides the settlement layer to make this possible.
Last but not least, he advocated for large-language models in the realm of prediction markets and decentralized governance, emphasizing how AI would “massively” amplify human judgment in these areas.
Buterin’s Concern About Centralized AI
In an earlier response to security concerns about OpenAI’s ChatGPT, Buterin was worried about AI-related security vulnerabilities that might result in personal user data leaks.
Price Action: At the time of writing, ETH was exchanging hands at $2,009.76, down 2.09% in the last 24 hours, according to data from Benzinga Pro.
