I heard that recently Apple has handed over Siri's intelligence to Google. This may seem like a partnership, but it actually reflects a deeper issue—the concentration of AI power in the hands of a few giants. The monopoly trap that Musk warned about earlier is now playing out before our eyes.

Think carefully, and you'll see the logic behind this is quite brutal: user data continuously flows into these tech giants, who control both computing power and data. Once a monopoly pattern is formed, it becomes very difficult to break.

But this problem also gives us inspiration— in the AI-driven era, decentralized identity and data sovereignty become more important than ever. Some privacy infrastructure projects are exploring new paths: through distributed architectures, allowing individuals to regain control over their own data. This is not just technological progress; it’s a redefinition of the question "Who owns your data?"

While the giants are still fighting over data ownership, the Web3 approach has already shifted—making users the true owners of their data. This is the long-term solution.
