Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson warned that AI models, especially cloud-based ones, might use users' unpublished research without permission, potentially compromising intellectual property. He highlighted a case where AI allegedly used a mathematician's unpublished work to solve a problem, questioning claims of independent AI breakthroughs. Hoskinson advocates for private AI environments like the Midnight project, which aims to protect user data by preventing infrastructure operators from accessing sensitive information. This approach could safeguard academics and entrepreneurs from losing control over their ideas when using AI services.
