AI Agents Transforming Web3 into an Autonomous Machine-Driven Internet
Web3 technology, primarily designed for machines, faces adoption challenges due to its complexity. The emergence of AI agents as autonomous economic actors is reshaping this landscape.
- Smart contracts and decentralized networks remain foundational but are now optimized for AI-driven tasks.
- Despite 10% crypto ownership globally, active decentralized application usage is low, hindered by usability issues.
- AI agents can navigate complex systems efficiently, enabling broader Web3 functionality.
- The Post Web stack introduces a new paradigm where AI acts on users' behalf, enhancing usability.
The Post Web stack comprises three core layers:
- Agentic Layer: AI agents serve as digital intermediaries, executing transactions and managing assets based on user intent.
- Trust Layer: Smart contracts ensure deterministic environments for secure transactions, crucial for AI operations.
- Infrastructure Layer: Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePIN) provide necessary resources like computing power and storage, promoting agent autonomy.
This evolution signifies a transition from human-centric interfaces to a machine-driven internet, redefining interactions across digital services.
