AI agents need cryptographic provenance, not just better reasoning
RileyRalmuto · x · 2026-07-23
The post argues that as AI agents start cracking open problems, the key missing piece is provenance: how to prove which agent, which human, and which chain of reasoning actually produced the result.
It frames mnemos and nostr as the answer — a cryptographic chain of custody for thought itself, with signed and sequenced records for who asked, which agent reasoned, and which humans steered the work. The pitch is that breakthroughs will come, but attribution and continuity will matter just as much.
