[Vitalik: AI and Formal Verification Will Reshape Ethereum Security and Development] Vitalik Buterin, in a conversation with Xiao Feng, stated that AI is rapidly enhancing the ability to identify vulnerabilities. Combined with formal verification, it is expected to enable the development of more secure smart contracts, potentially allowing non-programmers to create bug-free contracts. Meanwhile, he emphasized that Ethereum L1 will continue to focus on decentralization and security, while advancing quantum-resistant cryptography (such as hash functions and STARK) and ZK technology applications to address future security challenges posed by AI and quantum computing.
