⚡️After reading Vitalik's latest article "A shallow dive into formal verification," I couldn't help but increase my holdings in $ETH!
It is quite clear that Vitalik @VitalikButerin's long-term thoughts now all converge on a single core:
How to retain verification, constraints, exit, and personal sovereignty while capabilities are becoming stronger.
This is also the biggest difference I see between ETH and many AI projects; there is always something very pure that touches you!
This piece is not just a technical article; it is answering a very cypherpunk real-world question:
When AI begins to write code on a large scale, can humans continue to trust software?
Especially after things like Crypto, ZK, cross-chain, AI Agents, and automated financial protocols stack together, the system complexity has already begun to exceed human auditing limits.
This is actually the most interesting aspect of the whole article:
Many people believe AI will reinforce decentralization because AI lowers the barrier to creation;
But what Vitalik sees is exactly the opposite—
AI may also greatly reinforce centralization; if all security can only rely on company hosting and black-box AI, then the cypherpunk principles will come to an end.
So he is essentially looking for a trustworthy neutral layer for the AI era.
The answer he ultimately finds is actually the same thing Ethereum has been doing for years:
Not pursuing maximum efficiency but pursuing "verifiability." AI + Formal Verification is actually like Blockchain + ZK.
