Vitalik Buterin Questions AI and Its Control

Vitalik Buterin questions the nature of AI: existential threat or mere tool? He highlights the lack of consensus on the subject. By 2040, he envisions scenarios ranging from superintelligence to decentralized solutions via the Ethereum blockchain. Buterin proposes measures such as total transparency and emergency switches to manage the risks associated with AI. He warns against uncontrollable AI that could harm employment and manipulate markets. Ethereum could offer solutions by making AI accessible through smart contracts and decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs). However, he acknowledges that global coordination remains a challenge, especially if countries like China or the United States do not participate. The debate, according to Buterin, is not just about the potential arrival of ASI, but about managing its risks.
