Thanks again to @zac-aztec and @brunny for coordinating on a AMA! Will do my best to add all of this responses here.

Not really.

I think the real value in zk is privacy-focused applications where proofs are generated client-side. It will be a long time before zk chips are found in phones.

For server-side zk, it is a scaling and coordination problem. Compute is cheap. Parallel zk provers are easier to scale than custom hardware.

Working on building zkTLS infra/products. A ruthless empiricist.
