Summary
- The launch of AI-powered security tools like Mythos could dramatically lower the cost of smart contract audits and enable continuous code reviews, potentially changing what the crypto industry considers reasonable security due diligence.
- While AI can help uncover coding flaws faster and more cheaply, some researchers said it cannot replace human judgment or prevent many of crypto’s biggest losses, which often stem from social engineering, compromised credentials, and operational failures rather than smart contract bugs.
