How does blockchain technology support AI privacy?

By Aman Priyanshu

Blockchain technology supports AI privacy in several ways. Firstly, blockchain provides a decentralized and tamper-proof system for storing and managing data. This means that sensitive AI-related data, such as training data and machine learning models, can be securely stored and accessed without the risk of unauthorized tampering or manipulation. Additionally, blockchain enables secure and transparent data sharing among multiple parties, allowing AI systems to access the necessary data for training and operation without compromising the privacy of individuals. Furthermore, blockchain’s use of cryptographic techniques ensures that data stored on the blockchain remains private and can only be accessed by authorized parties, thereby enhancing the privacy and security of AI systems.

To illustrate, imagine blockchain as a digital ledger that records every transaction in a way that is transparent and cannot be altered. Now, think of AI privacy as a valuable item stored in a secure, transparent, and tamper-proof vault. The blockchain ledger ensures that only authorized individuals have access to the vault, and any attempt to tamper with the item inside would be immediately visible to everyone. This combination of security and transparency provided by blockchain technology safeguards the privacy of AI-related data and ensures that it remains secure and unaltered.
