Ethereum cryptocurrency developer says blockchain can solve key challenges of artificial intelligence

Former Ethereum developer Eric Connor said that the platform has a unique opportunity to become a decentralized partner in solving key problems of modern artificial intelligence. In his opinion, Ethereum ETH $1,596.23 Bridged Ether (StarkGate) 0.10% Market capitalization $0.14 billion VOL. 24 hours $0.3 billion can play a crucial role in combining the transparency of the blockchain with the computational capabilities of AI, creating more reliable, open, and ethical systems.

Connor believes that artificial intelligence is currently under the sway of large tech corporations that keep models «in a black box,» control data, and violate privacy. He sees this as a chance for Ethereum, which, through smart contracts, provides transparency, decentralization, economic incentives through tokens, and a built-in micropayment infrastructure.

Most importantly, Connor emphasizes that Ethereum has already fostered a culture of openness, collaboration, and minimized trust — exactly what is needed to create ethical and accountable artificial intelligence. He also calls on the blockchain development community to work more actively on AI tools, research, and application projects, which could lead to massive adoption of the technology beyond financial services.

It is also noted that Ethereum can become the foundation for the development of AI agents — programs that make decisions independently, adapt to changes, and interact with the blockchain. Already, projects such as Luna (a virtual influencer with its own wallet), AIXBT (a crypto market analyst), Botto (a community-driven NFT artist), as well as Bankr and HeyAnon services that allow transactions via a regular chat are appearing on the platform.

Thus, Ethereum is turning into an environment where artificial intelligence not only uses the blockchain but also coexists with it on the basis of transparency, autonomy, and decentralization, which may determine the future of digital self-government.
