The coming years will split companies into two groups: those that become AI-native and those left catching up. The innovators who harness AI now will define the winners of tomorrow. Follow me for strategic insights on leading through the AI revolution.

When vibe coding AI builds on trad. tech stacks: "61% of tasks run correctly but only 10.5% are secure." ➡️ Self-writing apps, created on demand for non-technical users w/o tech teams, should be made from tamperproof unstoppable software. ICP + Caffeine AI ☕
New Carnegie Mellon paper shows that code written by AI agents during vibe coding often works but is usually unsafe. With the strongest setup, 61% of tasks run correctly but only 10.5% are secure. Vibe coding here means a human writes a natural language request and an AI agent

To confirm, there are now more people building on ICP / Internet Computer at any one time, than on every other blockchain in existence combined. Caffeine ☕ is still in beta, with numerous key features still being rolled out, and marketing remains experimental. Tick tock.

The "self-writing internet" — AI building secure and unstoppable apps on blockchain that's "internet cloud" — is the 1st MAJOR INNOVATION to emerge from Web3 in years, has UNLIMITED POTENTIAL, and provides real tech utility, not speculative games. #Future ICP + Caffeine AI ☕

AI is getting better at building apps, and self-writing cloud will only grow. But, AI is also getting better at powering hacks of traditional cloud Caffeine AI's ☕ solution: build on ICP internet cloud, where app software is tamperproof, and immune to traditional cyber attacks

The science and implementation of chain key is complex, but it works, and has solved for GENUINE decentralization, trustlessness and security — showing what hardcore crypto R&D can achieve, and unlocking more power from the fully onchain / internet cloud paradigm 💥

When your browser requests a web asset (e.g. index.html) from the IC, its chain key signature is embedded in a HTTP response header. Currently, you need some software on your phone or laptop to transparently verify (dfinity/http-proxy) but expect innovation to obviate... 🧵

Of course, an offchain wallet or financial service can also validate the results of its calls to onchain software, since chain key signature verification code has the NNS' public 48-byte key baked in. Security and TRUSTLESSNESS at last.. 🧵

For example, an internet-connected fridge (IoT) might ask a service on the IC if a software upgrade was available. If new software was returned, the fridge could validate its call/tx signature to verify that it came from the onchain service & no tampering occurred.. 🧵

Thus, every tx result is signed by chain key. Anyone who knows the 48-byte public key of the NNS (known ahead of time, and constant for all time) can validate any tx signature. Valid signatures tell you both that the tx executed, and that it produced the result received... 🧵

Each subnet (essentially a special kind of chain used to scale) has its own such key, which is signed/validated by the NNS. Through a system of Merkle paths, the result of every tx processed by a subnet is signed using the subnet's key... 🧵

At the core of the Internet Computer network, is a 48-byte public key, which belongs to the fully onchain and autonomous NNS (the Network Nervous System), which will stay the same forever. The chain itself acts as the private key, hence the term "chain key technology"... 🧵

At DFINITY, we believe in decentralization and security. We designed the Internet Computer so that when you submit a transaction (typically your app in the browser does this for you) you can validate the result WITHOUT the need to trust a node, using magic internet math... 🧵

With new high-throughout chains like Solana, it's not practical to run your own node as nodes demand special hardware and incur huge bandwidth costs (even professionally run nodes can only keep recent blocks). In effect, users & dapp developers HAVE to trust a node operator... 🧵

Dapp operators soon found it was much easier to use nodes run by others, whom they TRUSTED, such as Infura, run by ConsenSys on AWS. This was why when AWS once went down, so did a large segment of the Ethereum ecosystem. A security breach at Infura would be much worse... 🧵

In practice, of course, running and maintaining Ethereum nodes became increasingly expensive and time consuming, especially as the chain grew in size. The "most" decentralized architecture possible for dapps & wallets (before fully onchain/ICP) fell out of fashion... 🧵

When Ethereum launched, the idea was those building dapps would put the UX and compute on cloud, say. alongside a dedicated node that this offchain infra could use to stay in sync with onchain "smart contact" software & data, avoiding the need for more centralized trust, but.. 🧵

The only way to avoid this kind of thing was to run your own Bitcoin client/nofe that stayed in sync with the latest blocks, and use that to query balances quickly. But of course, that was a hassle... 🧵
