I used to think a single standard for AI verification would eventually win out. But looking at OpenGradient, I realized the “one-size-fits-all” approach is probably the wrong question. They treat TEEs and ZKML not as rivals fighting for supremacy, but as two tools in the same toolbox and honestly, that makes a lot of sense.
TEEs are practical when speed and efficiency are critical. Inference runs inside secure hardware, privacy stays strong, and attestation gives you a sense of where and how it executed. For many everyday apps, that balance is plenty good enough. The tradeoff is clear though: you’re ultimately trusting the hardware vendor.
ZKML goes the other way entirely.
“ZKML doesn’t trust the machine it trusts the math. Cryptographic proofs that show the output actually came from the right model. Stronger guarantees, but yeah, it costs more in time and compute.”
The real game is about trust assumptions and economics. Some workloads chase low latency and cheap runs TEEs fit perfectly there. Others need public verifiability or serious auditability, so ZKML’s extra cost feels justified. That arbitrage-bot analogy keeps clicking for me: a tiny delay or added compute quietly reshapes the whole strategy. Same thing here the market won’t just pick the “most trustworthy” option on paper. It’ll quietly decide where TEEs dominate, where ZKML wins out, and where hybrids start to emerge.
The future likely isn’t either/or. It’s flexibility: workload-aware routing, TEEs for the hot paths, ZK proofs for the checkpoints that actually matter, and policy-driven selection of the right tool at the right time.
