Vitalik Buterin Warns of Cloud-Based AI Risks for Crypto Users

Renowned cryptocurrency expert Vitalik Buterin has sounded an alarm about the potential security risks associated with cloud-based artificial intelligence (AI) tools.

In a recent blog post, Buterin highlighted concerns that these systems can expose user data and increase the risk of unauthorized actions. He cited research showing that approximately 15% of AI agent skills contain malicious instructions, which could potentially compromise system settings or send sensitive information to external servers without the user's knowledge.
