I wrote about why AI needs blockchain-enabled computing, and why I’m optimistic as these technologies converge.
AI is going to end the internet as we’ve known it. Its advancements are inevitable and will be mostly beneficial. But AI is already upending the internet’s economic covenant, and big tech companies are best-placed to reap the rewards. AI-powered deepfakes and bots are also degrading people’s trust in the online world.
To address these challenges without slowing down AI innovation, blockchains can:
- Enforce ownership for users and creators
- Verify identity to isolate bots and imposters
- Ensure authenticity to prevent tampering
Crypto can carry the torch of the open internet and help keep it creative, open, and diverse.
