Vitalik Buterin via the Vitalik Buterin Blog This is a mirror of the post at https://medium.com/@VitalikButerin/quadratic-arithmetic-programs-from-zero-to-hero-f6d558cea649 There has been a lot of interest lately in the technology behind zk-SNARKs, and people are increasingly trying to demystify something that many have come to call "moon math" due to its perceived sheer indecipherable complexity. zk-SNARKs are indeed quite challenging to grasp, especially due to the sheer number of moving parts that need to come together for the whole thing to work, but if we break the technology down piece by piece then

Machines are incessantly getting smarter through the use of NLP, or natural language processing; however, there’s a flipside to that as well, where the convenience of AI-powered models, be they chatbots, virtual assistants, or content creation tools, cannot be ruled out altogether. Why should one feel that way? Well, most of the AI models have a biased approach to problem solving. However, with the help of TruthGPT, the future may offer some light on the capabilities of biased AI models, despite their ability to sow social discontent, promote cultural differences, and create
