Blockchain Will Change Humanity, the World, & AI for Good
The Tech behind Cryptocurrency Might Be Worth Something, says Christopher Benek
Cryptocurrency is risky, but the technology behind it—blockchain—has the potential to change the world for the better, says Christopher Benek.
Lack of trust is a major problem today. Blockchain is an accountability system that links unalterable transactions forming a chain. While there are theoretical risks with AI gaining control over the blockchain, the idea of blockchain has value because it increases accountability and trust in the world.
Religious institutions, like the church, can benefit from blockchain technology, Benek believes, by building systems of trust. By fostering values like transparency, accountability, and reliability through technology, we can improve humanity and the world and reduce the risk of AI threats.
