In the alignment debate, Vitalik has come down on the side of “restrict capabilities, not people.”

According to multiple reports, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin supports Kimi 3.1’s decision to remove advanced cyberattack capabilities from its training data. He emphasized that restricting capabilities based on use cases is preferable to discriminating based on users’ identities. He also warned that mishandling AI risks could lead to excessive model lock-in, pervasive surveillance, and social stratification.

How to read this: This is an AI safety and alignment issue, not just product PR. What’s more relevant to the crypto community is that open-source models, automated attack tools, and the attack surface of on-chain infrastructure could all grow at the same time. Going forward, it’s more useful to watch the public boundaries each model card sets around “offensive capabilities,” and whether legitimate red-teaming channels remain open for security research, than to focus on slogans.
