Right. So I think the signal here, as is basically the signal with everything that AI touches, is that we need to be more proactive, more agile, and most of all, work faster.
The constraints of adapting the bitcoin protocol are in theory lighter than the constraints of disproving the birthday problem as a limit to the maximum induced weakness on a perfect hash function, and thus any gains AI can make in the speed of breaking SHA256 can be easily matched in gains in making the bitcoin protocol more resistant to such weaknesses?
