AI: Vitalik Buterin Builds an Almost Untraceable Agent

Vitalik Buterin pushes the privacy of his AI agents very far. The co-founder of Ethereum has just unveiled a “paranoiac mode” combining Tor, private payments via zkAPI, dummy network traffic, and local rewriting of prompts. Each conversation goes through a different Tor circuit. Even the payment to the AI provider is designed to no longer directly reveal the user’s identity. This is not the first time Vitalik Buterin has worried about agents’ security. In April, he already warned about risks linked to AI agents and advocated for more local processing and isolated environments. His new setup goes further. Buterin uses Pi as an environment for his AI agent.
