Vitalik advocates using personal LLMs to improve decentralized governance efficiency.

On February 21, PANews reported that Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin published an article proposing several ideas for optimizing democratic and decentralized governance using AI and personal LLMs (Large Language Models). He believes that "AI directly acting as government" is dystopian, but the lack of human attention and expertise in governance mechanisms such as DAOs can be alleviated by using personal governance agents, citizen-participatory dialogue agents, and AI-integrated suggestion/prediction markets. Vitalik also proposed introducing technologies such as multi-party secure computation, TEEs, or encrypted circuits in decentralized decision-making scenarios involving confidential information, allowing personal LLMs to participate in judgment within a "black box." He emphasized the need to strengthen participant anonymity and content privacy protection using zero-knowledge proofs and multi-party privacy computation tools.
