Counterweights and Complementarities: The Convergence of AI and Blockchain Powering a Decentralized Future
This editorial addresses the critical intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and blockchain technologies, highlighting their contrasting tendencies toward centralization and decentralization, respectively. While AI, particularly with the rise of large language models (LLMs), exhibits a strong centralizing force due to data and resource monopolization by large corporations, blockchain offers a counterbalancing mechanism through its inherent decentralization, transparency, and security.
