Decentralizing Security: How Lagrange is Revolutionizing Crypto and AI Verification – with Ismael Hishon-Rezaizadeh | S5 E12

Send us a text Zero-knowledge proofs are revolutionizing trust in AI and blockchain by providing verifiable computation without compromising privacy or security.  Ismael Hishon-Rezaizadeh, founder of Lagrange, explains how their technology is making AI trustworthy at internet scale with practical applications for combating deepfakes and securing sensitive data. • ZK proof generation costs have decreased by 1000x in just three years, making previously theoretical applications practical • Lagrange"s DeepProof is the first zero-knowledge machine learning library, 700 times faster than competitors • Users typically don"t prioritize privacy and security until they experience a breach, creating adoption challenges • ZK technology enables verifying AI outputs without revealing underlying data, essential for trust in autonomous systems • The convergence of AI and blockchain creates more than additive effects – not 1+1=2, but 1+1=5 in terms of innovation potential • Common misconception: ZK technology is not limited to Ethereum but applicable to any chain, execution environment, or application • Two enduring use cases in crypto: simple cross-border value transfer and complex AI systems deployed on decentralized infrastructure This episode was recorded through a Descript call on March 18, 2025.
