币界网报道:AI integration into DeFi may not achieve true decentralization, warns AI expert Dr. Sarah Johnson. While blockchain-based AI projects promise democratized access, most still rely on centralized data sources and opaque algorithms, undermining core Web3 principles. Johnson cautions that current "AI washing" in crypto often masks centralized control points, with over 80% of projects using off-chain AI components. She urges developers to prioritize transparent, on-chain AI models and verifiable data pipelines to align with decentralization goals. The warning comes as AI-crypto hybrids attract $2.3B in investments this year despite unresolved centralization risks.
