Gaming-focused Ethereum L2 Ronin Network has launched its own AI agent inspired by developer Sky Mavis’ co-founder, Jeffrey “Jihoz” Zirlin, in partnership with Virtuals Protocol, a platform for the creation of crypto-based AI agents built on another Ethereum L2, Base Network.
What’s the Significance? A major network adopting emerging AI agents shows the advantages the integration of blockchain and artificial intelligence technologies can bring.
Definition of Terms: AI agents are computer systems or programs that can perform tasks and make decisions autonomously without human intervention on behalf of users or other programs by observing and interacting with the environment through sensors, processing data, and making decisions.
- Roles: These AI agents can be personalities on social media, market participants on-chain, web3 analysts, and more.
- Use Cases: They can also help with customer support, content creation, web research, and more.
- Read our beginner’s guide on AI agents here:
- Fun Fact: According to Sky Mavis, the team behind Virtuals Protocol started as a gaming guild for known crypto game Axie Infinity.
Who is Jaihoz? He is Zirlin’s agentic twin and is a social personality on Z, tweeting automated posts about the Sky Mavis and the co-founder.
Key Quote:
“You know him by many names. Professor. Doctor. @jihoz_axie, cofounder of Sky Mavis is ever-present on Twitter.
Today, we launched an AI Agent that has been trained to embody Jihoz’s spirit but with more freedom and less responsibility. A bit more unhinged.”
