AI Frameworks Enabled by Blockchain: Creating Trustworthy and Responsible AI Using Distributed Ledger Technology
暫譯: 區塊鏈驅動的AI框架：利用分散式帳本技術創造可信賴與負責任的AI

區塊鏈技術為在人工智慧（AI）框架中建立信任、隱私和可驗證性提供了強大的基礎。本書將專注於區塊鏈如何使AI框架和應用能夠以負責任的方式擴展，重塑從金融市場到醫療保健和教育等多個行業的未來。您將看到，在下一波AI產品中，區塊鏈可以提供一個「信任層」（Trust Layer），這是一個之前僅在區塊鏈網絡內部實現的基本特徵。之前在區塊鏈中實現的可證明共識算法和預言機（oracles）可以擴展到與大型語言模型（LLMs）和未來應用集成的自主代理。

最後，您將了解到安全性是AI實際應用中的一個主要關注點，而區塊鏈可以幫助減輕由於其去中心化特性所帶來的威脅。因此，將會有大量討論區塊鏈如何提供增強的安全性，以防止提示注入（prompt injections）、LLM劫持（LLM-hijacking）以獲取危險信息和隱私問題。這些想法在大型金融機構發布自己的區塊鏈和分散式帳本協議時進行了嚴格的研究，並且重點關注隱私。

今年，AI正經歷一場寒武紀大爆發，所有主要研究領域的基礎模型相繼出現，然而，大多數這類模型缺乏外部驗證事實「正確性」或LLM所做回覆的能力。同樣，沒有明確的方法來區分有意義的見解和幻覺（hallucination）。這些挑戰仍然是AI研究的前沿，而《區塊鏈驅動的AI框架》旨在將技術文獻轉化為可行且實用的AI領域建議。

您將學到什麼
- 為生成式AI帶來一層準確性，讓非生成式組件充當護欄
- 保護用戶免受有害偏見和幻覺的影響
- 了解區塊鏈如何在使AI與人類利益保持一致方面發揮作用
- 回顧已在利用兩者構建技術堆棧方面投入大量資金的各方的使用案例和實際應用
