The Trust Layer of AI “From Black Box to Transparent Systems: How Web3 Enables Verifiable AI

​AI is powerful, but can we trust it? The Trust Layer of AI will explore how Web3, decentralized compute, and cryptographic proofs can transform black-box models into transparent, verifiable systems.

​Hosted in collaboration with Crypto Mondays, this evening brings together builders, founders, and curious minds at the intersection of AI and crypto. Expect lightning talks, panel discussions, and plenty of networking with the Bay Area’s most forward-thinking community.

​Speakers:

​• Rodrigo Coelho, CEO, Edge and Node

​• Alex Fowler. CSO, Nexus

​• Adam Leon, Head of BD, Vara-Network

​• Dylan Kawalec, Head of Developer Relations, Phala Network
