Vitalik: Building an Ethereum AI ecosystem should follow a differentiated innovation path.

Davide Crapis, head of artificial intelligence at the Ethereum Foundation, tweeted that current internet API access heavily relies on identity binding (such as email, bank cards, or wallets), and the development of AI may exacerbate this trend. He proposed a solution to replace "identity" with "staking": users deposit a staked amount once, can make multiple API calls while remaining unlinked, and abuse will be penalized. Vitalik Buterin responded that for Ethereum to become an ideal platform for AI, it cannot simply be a copy of existing solutions with a different name. He emphasized the need for meaningful technological improvements, such as zero-knowledge privacy-preserving payments and reputation systems, to create infrastructure and applications that are truly superior to existing solutions.
