AI's potential to speed up scrutiny of cryptographic assumptions

a16z crypto shares a discussion about AI's progress in math and what it could mean for cryptography. Stanford cryptographer Dan Boneh says systems based on cryptographic assumptions once waited around 10 years before deployment; trying to break an assumption with a model for a month could boost confidence if it fails. a16z crypto's Eddy Lazzarin says AI brings new scrutiny. The discussion also covers quantum computing and systems that can change cryptographic methods.
