Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin recently published a lengthy article reflecting on the development of the decentralized acceleration (d/acc) concept he proposed last year. In the article, he delves into key issues such as AI safety regulation, the role of cryptocurrency in d/acc, and public goods financing.

Regarding AI safety, Vitalik proposed two main strategies: first, establishing a legal liability system for AI users, deployers, and developers; second, implementing a global "soft pause" mechanism at the industrial hardware level to significantly reduce global computing power when necessary.

He also pointed out the deep connections between cryptocurrency and d/acc, including the extension of values, the early adopter community, and technological complementarity, particularly in areas such as prediction markets and zero-knowledge proofs. Finally, Vitalik emphasized the importance of decentralized financing for the development of open-source projects, noting that despite challenges from rapid technological advancement and reduced global cooperation, emerging technologies provide humanity with coping capabilities.
