The post Ethereum Could Lead the Way in AI Decentralization, Former Dev Claims appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.

Blockchain researchers also believe that Ethereum could play a pivotal role in the development of agentic AI. Analyst noted that Ethereum’s “biggest mainstream moment is waiting in the wings with AI”. The Ethereum blockchain network has a huge scope in solving real-world problems by using its prowess of decentralization, while working along with artificial intelligence platforms, noted former Ethereum developer Eric Connor. In a post on the X platform on April 15, the analyst noted that Ethereum’s “biggest mainstream moment is waiting in the wings with AI”. Introducing AI Developments on Ethereum Connor added that AI developments are currently on fastrack to reshape almost every aspect of our lives, however, it is “plagued by black-box models, centralized data silos, and privacy pitfalls”. But Connor believes that such problems provide Ethereum an opportunity to shine. The biggest advantage with Ethereum is that it offers transparency via verifiable smart contracts, via aligning incentives through token economies, decentralization against Big Tech monopolies, as well as built-in micropayments infrastructure. Connor stated that the Ethereum smart contracts can address the “black box” problem by providing transparent records of an AI model just by training data sources and processes. However, leading AI companies might oppose open models due to their reliance on secrecy and control for profitability, he explained. As the demand for transparency, fairness, and security continues to rise, Ethereum, he noted, provides a compelling alternative. Connor added: Ethereum already has the ethos with openness, collaboration and trust minimization,  things that ethical and accountable AI needs. Connor believes that Ethereum can offer AI developers compelling reasons to adopt decentralized solutions by actively developing tools, conducting research, and showcasing real-world applications. “This could drive mainstream adoption well beyond the realm of finance,” he concluded. For now, all eyes are on the Ethereum Pectra upgrade, scheduled to…
