It’s time to build responsible autonomous agents . 

Model Transparency.

All weights and specs for open-source AI models visible and completely auditable on-chain.  

Immutability.

Immutable, persistent storage of model weights and training data on-chain mitigates severe risks including prompt injection and other forms of model tampering.

Information provenance & proof-of-humanity.

Proof-of-humanity protocols built on top of Arweave’s immutable ledger of information will act as the great differentiator between human intelligence and machine intelligence.

Agent Explainability.

A persistent ledger of data that can map outputs to the training inputs.

Well-designed Autonomous Agents will be able to develop products, build and execute marketing strategies, engage with customers, build communities, book events and negotiate contracts. This will save businesses of all forms money and time and give every human the opportunity to become a manager. We are excited to see the first companies entirely run and operated by these agents.

We believe drones are nearly capable of making a large real life example of this today. 


We’d love to see an AI DAO for self owned drones that completes tasks. For example, fruit picking. An AI DAO that can farm fruit, sort it, remove bad products, and discover end buyers to negotiate contracts with would be super interesting.
