Ethereum (ETH) price briefly surges over $2,900 on Monday, sparking renewed interest in the community ahead of the upcoming Dencun upgrade. ETH price upswing comes after Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin’s latest post regarding artificial intelligence (AI) and its use cases in crypto.
Ethereum creator Vitalik Buterin has been actively looking at artificial intelligence (AI) recently, talking about its pros and cons. He recently talked about how crypto and AI overlap, pointing out potential use cases and risks.
Vitalik Buterin expressed his excitement about artificial intelligence in a blog post on February 19. The use of AI in formal code verification and bug detection is one application about which he is quite enthusiastic. According to him, code problems represent “Ethereum’s biggest technical risk pro” at the moment, and AI will revolutionize bug remediation.
“One application of AI that I am excited about is AI-assisted formal verification of code and bug finding. Right now Ethereum’s biggest technical risk probably is bugs in code, and anything that could significantly change the game on that would be amazing,” said Buterin.
Aptos Labs’ Wolfgang Grieskamp commented that the design of the EVM, unfortunately, makes verification very hard, with difficulty in discovering simple control flow because of indirect branching. “Not sure whether AI will help here. Formal verification of Move is easier and works today, AI can further boost it.”

This will offer a better solo staking user experience.
