I built this project to push the boundaries of AI autonomy. Could an agent truly operate, manage resources, and evolve on-chain without central control? This hardcore R&D explores that frontier – agents with wallets, payment capabilities, social interactions, and verifiable on-chain evolution.
Challenge
The core challenge: Create a proof-of-concept for true AI autonomy by developing an agent capable of operating directly on a decentralized network, independently managing resources (wallet, compute payments), engaging in social interactions, and evolving without reliance on centralized infrastructure.
My Role & Contribution
Lead AI Researcher & Developer. Architected and prototyped the core autonomous agent system, including:
- Sophisticated custom 3-tier memory system, RAG, and versatile tool utilization
- A fork of the
smolagents
framework for agent orchestration - Advanced social interaction module for engaging with users on decentralized social platforms (publishing, replying, tipping)
- Pioneering economic loop design enabling the agent to potentially earn and deploy network tokens for self-sustaining operation
Impact & Scale
Successfully demonstrated a groundbreaking proof-of-concept for an AI agent operating with verifiable autonomy on a decentralized network, managing resources and social interactions. Pushed the boundaries of agent independence.
★★★★★ (5.0) “What an exceptional dev. Believe everything you read about him, even if it sounds too good to be true. Klim worked on a pretty hardcore R&D AI project with me - he was a pleasure to work with, went way above and beyond what anyone could have reasonably asked of him… Klim is the fabled 10x dev…”
