I was hoping this article was going to be a serious look at if an AI could run on a currency like Ethereum. A few months back I wrote a tongue in cheek version about if the DAO hack was to prevent the singularity [1]. But I'd be curious if it were actually possible. 1. http://arthur-johnston.com/essay/2016/06/26/Rokos_DAO.html http://arthur-johnston.com/essay/2016/06/26/Rokos_DAO.html

If an AI can run on a universal Turing machine, then it can run on a Turing-equivalent platform like ether. That doesn't make it a good or economical idea.

  On the contrary, it's a great solution for AI risk: run the AI on a blockchain, and hackers will find plenty of ways to disable it if it starts to get out of hand.
