Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about how artificial intelligence is beginning to reshape entire industries — and crypto is no exception.

On the one hand, AI can improve efficiency, trading, even security audits.
But on the other hand… what happens when large AI-driven entities begin dominating mining, node operation, or even governance decisions in DAO-based Bitcoin side projects?

As far as mining goes, it could be that it make it more efficient, but I'm not expert on mining, so this might not be in the case. And the only way to at least disrupt the mining process if thru 51% attack, and if again, if it will make mining efficient then maybe this could be one area that the miners will have to look at.

In trading, there could be scenario that AI driven bots might be used as a weapon to attack and manipulate the price.

For me though, instead of looking at AI to be a threat, why not just think of how AI will help Bitcoin?
