Message for the Web3/Blockchain Community Regarding zkLLM

Thank you for your interest in zkLLM. I would like to clarify that zkLLM was originally designed for AI regulations, not for Web3/Blockchain applications. It was not specifically tailored to meet the requirements of blockchains. Therefore, I was quite surprised and overwhelmed by the attention it has received from your community. I cannot guarantee that zkLLM is suitable for your application or meets your security and privacy standards, such as passing a security audit. If you are interested in zkLLM, I recommend starting with your own implementation from the level of tensors over the finite field and elliptic curve. However, please note that I am unable to provide guidance or support in this regard, as Web3/Blockchain is not my area of expertise. I will not be able to answer your questions or collaborate with you.

I am not a member of the Web3/Blockchain community, nor am I familiar with it. Please do not expect me to behave like a member of your community. I am no longer working on zero-knowledge deep learning. Even if I were, it is out of the scope of my research to provide support for your projects. Please do not reach out for my tips and thoughts on your projects even if you want to use zkLLM. Please do not expect me to help you with your implementation.

I understand that a significant part of the contributions in zero-knowledge deep learning comes from the Web3/Blockchain community. Actually, the starting point of our implementation was a Web3/Blockchain project (see the acknowledgments in the paper and the README file). Therefore, I indeed attempted to engage with the community in the past, when I was working on the topic. However, our interactions were not very successful, and I have decided to stop engaging with the community.

I understand that anonymity is common in the Web3/Blockchain community. However, to protect my rights, I cannot accept anonymous contact. I can only communicate through official channels approved by the university. Please note that these channels do not include Telegram, Discord, or WeChat.

Thank you for your understanding.
