During a recent interview with Bloomberg, Ian Rogers, Chief Experience Officer at Ledger, said that blockchain and artificial intelligence are actually two sides of the same coin:
“I think AI and blockchain are two sides of the same coin. AI brings digital abundance and blockchains are fundamentally about digital scarcity. We already live in a world where you look at web pages created by AI that, you know, it was powered by web pages created by artificial intelligence,” he said.
Rogers predicts that blockchain technology will be useful in determining the authenticity of various content that can be found on the Internet. “At some point, knowing that it’s actually me, saying what I’m saying and that, you know, it’s not a deepfake and it’s not altered, you know, is incredibly important,” he noted.
For example, logging into your social media account with a Ledger wallet could prove that person is a human.
“…We will see more and more how these two things go hand in hand,” he added.
The company recently began shipping its Ledger Stax high-end crypto wallets originally announced in December 2022. Its new wallet features a secure touch screen that makes the wallet easier to use with self-custody. Notably, Ledger’s new high-end device was created in collaboration with Foxconn, the largest electronics contract manufacturer in the world.
