a16z experts: AI math breakthroughs don't mean cryptography is broken

  • —Boneh: the new AI results contain 'no cryptography problem'
  • —Lazzarin: elliptic curve security has not been reduced
  • —Thaler: AI cannot find an algorithm that does not exist
  • —AI may accelerate code audits and vulnerability detection before release
Why it matters: The AI-versus-cryptography debate is closely watched amid fears over Bitcoin and Ethereum security; a16z's stance may ease alarmist sentiment.
