## Resource

Vitalik Buterin, co-founder of Ethereum, discusses how AI can enhance crypto system and internet infrastructure security. He proposes combining AI-generated code with mathematically verified software for formal verification, ensuring code does exactly what its intended to. Buterin believes AI can help find and fix bugs before cyberattacks, potentially revolutionizing crypto security. He highlights Ethereums core tech, zero-knowledge proofs, and post-quantum cryptography as areas benefiting from this approach. Despite concerns about AI-generated code complexity, Buterin argues AI can speed up flaw identification and elimination, staying ahead of potential attackers. He emphasizes the importance of formal verification to ensure code accuracy and security, balancing AI development speed with robust security needs.
