Human-Aligned AI on Ethereum: How to Let Agents Act For You Without Owning You
2025-11-17 , World's Fair Stage

Would you trust an agent with your private key to act on your behalf? Safe AI agents will need roles scoped by human-linked rights enforced by cryptography. To safely scale AI in crypto, Ethereum must secure human-in-the-loop agency.

This talk will cover:
- Human-bound keys derived from personal attributes with delegation capability
- 2PC-MPC for delegated key shares to agents with programmable limits (spend, sign, publish)
- AI as a wallet co-pilot, not custodian or trusted third party
