Digital assets in the ai sector continued their recent surge, surging by 10%, as ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin claimed the technology could help the blockchain network mitigate its “biggest technical risk.”
CryptoSlate Data shows that several tokens in the sector, including SingularityNET's AGIX, 0x0.ai, Ocean Protocol's OCEAN, The Graph's GRT, Fetch.ai's FET and others, rose more than 10%, respectively, over the past day, promoting the sector market. capitalization at $18.06 billion and its trading volume at approximately $2.5 billion.
How ai can help ethereum
According to Buterin, artificial intelligence technology could help blockchain network developers identify errors and assist with code verification.
“Right now, ethereum's biggest technical risk is probably bugs in the code, and anything that can significantly change the game in that regard would be incredible,” he said. aggregate.
His comments come in the wake of his recent exploration of the synergy between ai and cryptocurrencies, detailed in a Jan. 30 blog post. eth.limo/general/2024/01/30/cryptoai.html”>border Several potential applications of ai within the cryptosphere.
He noted that ai integration could revolutionize cryptosystems, particularly in scenarios where individual participants are replaced by ai entities, allowing for more efficient operation at the microscale.
While acknowledging the functionality and security improvements of ai integration, Buterin also urged caution, especially in high-value, high-risk environments.
Beyond ethereum, other protocols and exchanges such as Solana, Polkadot, Binance, and sake.link are also exploring ai-based solutions.
However, despite the enthusiasm for ai, concerns remain about its effectiveness in detecting errors. Daniel “Haxx” Stenberg of cURL highlighted potential challenges, including the risk of ai-generated false positives complicating error identification efforts.
“A security report (generated by ai) can prevent a developer from fixing a really annoying bug. because a security problem is always more important than other errors. If the report turned out to be shit, we didn't improve security and we lost time to fix bugs or develop a new feature,” Stenberg argued.
