Vitalik's take: blockchain governance = the key to keeping AI from going full Skynet.
His angle? Crypto's anti-collusion mechanisms could actually stop autonomous agents from coordinating against us. Same defenses that secure blockchains (decentralization, cryptographic proofs) apply to AI safety.
He's pushing defensive tech over centralized control—basically saying we need permissionless checks on AI, not just hoping Sam Altman plays nice.
Makes sense when you think about it: if we can't trust humans not to collude, why would we trust AI agents? $ETH's governance primitives might be the blueprint.
Bullish on crypto x AI convergence, but only if the infrastructure is actually decentralized. Otherwise it's just OpenAI with extra steps.
