[Vitalik Supports AI Access Solution Using Staking as an Alternative to Identity] Vitalik Buterin commented on Davide Crapis' proposed AI access solution of 'using stake as an alternative to identity,' stating that this is the 'right way' to make Ethereum the infrastructure for AI. The proposal advocates for users to stake once and then initiate a large number of API calls, with the calls decoupled from real identities. Abusive behavior would be penalized through the stake. Vitalik pointed out that instead of merely adding a 'layer' of blockchain on top of centralized APIs, technologies like zero-knowledge privacy payments and reputation systems should be utilized to achieve stronger privacy and stake-based access control, thereby showcasing the differentiated technical value of public blockchains in AI scenarios.
