I researched this topic, and in my search I started to understand that AI can be both helpful and dangerous for crypto and DeFi.
Trump and AI rules
The post says Donald Trump does not support adding more strict rules around AI. He believes the US already has strong leadership and that AI can be controlled without slowing its development.
Some technology leaders are more worried. They believe AI is growing very quickly and could create serious risks if it is not properly controlled.
Why crypto can be affected
I have noticed that AI can become a powerful tool for both developers and hackers.
They can use AI to find weaknesses in crypto projects much faster. A good developer might use it to discover a security problem and fix it. But a hacker could find the same weakness and use it to attack a project.
This means DeFi platforms and crypto users will need stronger security as AI becomes more powerful.
Phishing and fake news
AI can also create very realistic fake videos, voices, messages and websites. These can become dangerous for crypto users because scammers may use them to steal wallets, passwords or funds.
They can also create fake news about a coin and make people believe the price will rise. This could help scammers create pump and dump schemes.
What I take from it
I start to see AI as a tool that depends on who is using it. It will have huge benefits for crypto development, but without proper security, attackers can also become much faster and smarter.
The main lesson for me is simple: as AI becomes stronger, crypto security will need to become stronger too.
