Vitalik Buterin: AI Wallets Need Strong Security

Vitalik Buterin says future crypto wallets will likely integrate AI, but he warns they should not directly control large transactions. Instead, AI could suggest a transaction plan while the wallet runs a simulation to preview the outcome. Users would then review the results and confirm manually. The goal is to ensure that what users intend matches what the system actually executes. This layered approach, using simulations, limits, and verification, could significantly reduce phishing attacks, mistakes, and other security risks.
