Virtuals Protocol, a platform merging artificial intelligence (AI) with decentralized frameworks, claims to simplify the creation and deployment of AI agents. These agents, which operate onchain or in digital environments, are said to fulfill roles as social media figures, onchain traders, or in-game non-playable characters (NPCs).
The collaboration’s flagship product is Jaihoz, an AI agent modeled after Jeffrey Zirlin, co-founder of Sky Mavis, the studio behind Axie Infinity. Virtuals reportedly designed Jaihoz to echo aspects of Zirlin’s online presence, albeit with added autonomy and personality. While Jaihoz is active on social media and intends to interact with users on Ronin’s platform, it is uncertain how impactful or beneficial these interactions will prove. These agents have been growing fiercely in popularity over the last few weeks.
