Yes. There is no putting the genie back in the bottle.
> Then anyone can verify the provenance chain: Was this made by a human? Which AI created it? Has it been altered since creation? Who owns the rights to it?
Oops, seems like you are trying to put the genie back in the bottle.

What is the genie that got out?
*Trust*
What if someone tempered with the crypto? What if quantum starts breaking cryptography?
We will never, ever acquire trust in digital platforms again. It is bound to be ephemeral. That ephemeral part of it is what deus-ex-cryptos supporters don't understand. Maybe you can in fact fix the tech, but fixing the human minds is not going to work.
Consider me, for example. I'm an idiot in crypto. For me to trust it, I need to understand it completely. There is no way in hell I'm going to be able to learn all those algorithms, and no way in hell I'm going to inspect their implementations (it's too much work for a single person), and not doing that is not good enough for me anymore.
This brings back all the same cans of worms. Infiltrators in crypto implementations, bad actors, state influence.
So it's conceivable a non-currency blockchain could be a path forward.
