A new article on blockchain and artificial intelligence has just been published in IEEE blockchain Technical Briefs: http://bit.ly/b8nAIx3E

Blockchain mostly emerged from bitcoin, the decentralized cryptocurrency that appeared in 2009. If blockchain was initially used to record cryptocurrency transactions in a public ledger, it has since been successfully applied to other domains that are not related to financial assets. Non-cryptocurrency use of blockchain is becoming a game changer in supply chain, government agencies, accounting or human resources, and blockchain solutions are deployed by Walmart, Maersk, the UN Refugee Agency or the Government of Estonia.

Because artificial intelligence is about the automation of cognitive processes and blockchain the automation of transactions, there are specific scenarios where both technologies can be combined.

A blockchain network can provide a decentralized platform to support some advanced AI capabilities. Potential use-cases include:

  • Blockchain and Data Confidentiality for AI Models
  • Blockchain to Prevent Data Corruption
  • Blockchain for Federated Learning
  • Blockchain for Explainable AI
