AI Privacy Showdown: Secret Network Sparks Debate in Toronto

 

As AI continues to transform our interactions with data and each other, the importance of privacy is more critical than ever. On May 13, 2025, the Blockchain Futurist Conference in Toronto will be the stage for Secret Network‘s launch of Privacy 2.0: The AI Revolution—a day-long event dedicated to the intersection of AI, blockchain, and confidential computing.

This influential gathering aims to unite developers, researchers, ethicists, and entrepreneurs to discuss how a privacy-centric infrastructure can establish a groundwork for ethical, decentralized, and intelligent systems.

Privacy: The Cornerstone of AI Advancement

“Privacy is not merely an aspect; it’s essential for the next iteration of intelligent systems,” stated Lisa Loud, Executive Director at Secret Network.

“With Privacy 2.0, we aim to create an environment where creators, scholars, and innovators can investigate how confidential computing can safeguard user data while fostering innovative AI applications. We’re excited to facilitate this dialogue in Toronto, continuing our commitment to accessible and open education.”

Supported by Silent Swap and DAIS, Privacy 2.0 will delve into how smart contracts that prioritize privacy and confidential computing can uphold individual liberties while promoting responsible and secure AI development.

Transitioning to Privacy 2.0

Privacy 2.0 capitalizes on the progress Secret Network has made in the last couple of years through its DeCC Day series—free global events concentrating on Decentralized Confidential Computing. These sessions have enabled a worldwide community of developers to create applications centered on privacy without obstacles.

A Relevant Discussion

“Secret Network’s Privacy 2.0 event enhances this year’s conference significantly,” commented Tracy Leparulo, Founder of the Blockchain Futurist Conference.

“In discussing the future of blockchain and AI, it is vital that we prioritize discussions about privacy and ethical innovation—Secret is at the forefront of this movement.”

The addition of this event to the Blockchain Futurist Conference underlines the increasing need to create ethical guidelines for new technologies before they become deeply ingrained and harder to adjust.
