As AI systems scale, privacy, security, and trustworthiness emerge as challenges. For instance, private data may be leaked during model training, and interactions among autonomous entities can lead to vulnerabilities. These concerns are amplified in decentralized AI and multi-agent systems, when multiple parties (e.g., human or agent) might interact without full trust in a centralized party. This research project aims to develop cryptographic solutions and frameworks that secure AI systems, particularly in decentralized and...
