Unlocking the Power of AI and Blockchain: A New Frontier in Verifiability

The article highlights the potential of combining AI and blockchain to create a more transparent and trustworthy system. Space and Time, a startup backed by Microsoft, is building software to bring the immutability of blockchain to AI applications. This is a crucial step in verifying the accuracy of AI-generated data and ensuring that it is not tampered with. But what if this assumption is wrong? What if the immutability of blockchain is not enough to guarantee the accuracy of AI-generated data? The author mentions that AI applications are black boxes, meaning that it is difficult to understand how they arrive at their outputs. This lack of transparency raises significant concerns about the reliability of AI-generated data. The author also mentions that Space and Time's technology aspires to ensure that when an AI application provides an output, you can confirm where it came from and that it's correct. But what if this technology is not foolproof? What if it is possible to manipulate the data stored on the blockchain? The author does not address these concerns, and it is unclear how Space and Time plans to mitigate these risks. The article also highlights the potential use cases for Space and Time's technology, such as in the world of DeFi and traditional financial institutions. However, it is unclear how this technology will be implemented and what the potential challenges and limitations are. The author does not provide any details on how Space and Time plans to address these challenges.
