Overview of AI Agent Module and the Prospects of DeFAI

The integration of blockchain and AI is opening up new development opportunities. Although recent AI Agent-related projects have faced market adjustments, the story in this field is far from over. This article will provide an overview of the AI Agent sector and explore the reasons why DeFAI may become the second growth curve for AI Agents.

Overview of AI Agent Module

AI Agent is an intelligent entity capable of autonomously executing tasks and interacting with external tools. It is not just a conversational model; it also needs to manage its own state, call various tools, and execute safely. The AI Agent projects in the Web3 field mainly include the following categories:

launch platform

The launch platform allows users to create, deploy, and monetize AI Agents. Virtuals is currently the largest launch platform, having issued over 100,000 Agents. Its ecosystem has birthed several well-known Agents, such as the virtual person Luna and "crypto KOL" AIXBT.

framework

The framework is a tool for developing AI Agents. The main ones include SolanaAgentKit, Eliza, Rig, GOAT, and ZerePy. Among them, ai16z not only provides the Eliza framework but is also a venture capital fund in the AI sector.

Infrastructure

The infrastructure provides underlying support for AI Agents, including data aggregation service cookie.fun, testing platform Jailbreak, resource sharing network FXN, and model fine-tuning service LUMO, among others.

Intelligent Entity

Intelligent agents are specific instances of AI Agents. In addition to the previously mentioned Luna and AIXBT, there are adversarial agent games like Freysa, artistic creation agents like Zerebro, and Pippin, which serves both as an agent and a framework.

DeFAI

DeFAI is a combination of decentralized finance and artificial intelligence, aimed at simplifying DeFi processes through AI technology. The main projects include the blockchain terminal Griffain, the DeFi operation platform Orbit, and BUZZ, which provides a natural language trading interface.

The Development Prospects of DeFAI

The development of AI Agents still has huge potential, and DeFAI is likely to become its second growth curve:

1. The integration of AI and Web3 is an inevitable trend, and AI can effectively lower the barriers to using Web3.

2. Recently, AI Agent projects have faced adjustments, more influenced by "trust crises" such as celebrity token issuance, rather than a denial of the intrinsic value of the projects themselves.

3. DeFAI can bring real value to users, and its tokens are easier to empower, such as unlocking advanced features through staking.

4. Compared to a pure launch platform or framework, the DeFAI project is better at capturing actual value.

DeFAI not only simplifies DeFi operations and enhances user experience, but also sits at the intersection of DeFi and AI Agents, promising to drive the adoption of DeFi and provide practical scenarios for AI Agents. Despite short-term market fluctuations, the long-term value of DeFAI is worth looking forward to.
