Sustainability of Slop Bots and Transition to Utility

Q10: Many people have expressed concerns about the sustainability of Slop Bots (AI junk bots). In your opinion, what is the future of Slop Bots? Will they eventually evolve into something more useful, or will they be phased out?

Shaw: I think Slop Bots will eventually be phased out. We are currently in the early stages of development, and everyone is still trying to figure out what works best. Many people are creating Slop Bots because they are easy to make and can quickly generate revenue.

However, I believe that as the market matures and users become more sophisticated, they will demand more useful and practical agents. Those who can quickly adapt and provide value will be able to survive in the long run.

We are already seeing some Slop Bots being used for more practical purposes, such as managing DeFi protocols or providing customer support. I believe this trend will continue, and Slop Bots will eventually become an integral part of our daily lives.

Q10: In the future, will we see more agents operating autonomously without direct human intervention, or will they still require some level of human oversight and interaction?

Shaw: I think it depends on the specific application. For some tasks, such as managing DeFi protocols, agents can operate autonomously with minimal human intervention. However, for other tasks, such as providing customer support or making high-stakes decisions, agents will still require some level of human oversight.

Ultimately, the goal is to create agents that can help us be more productive and efficient. Whether they operate autonomously or require some level of human interaction is less important than the value they can provide.

Token Economics and Value Capture Analysis

Q11: Let's talk about the token economics of Eliza. Many people are curious about how the project will capture value and how the token will be used in the ecosystem.

Shaw: We are still finalizing the tokenomics, but I can share some general ideas.

The main goal of the token is to align the incentives of all participants in the Eliza ecosystem. This includes developers, users, and the team itself. We want to create a system where everyone benefits from the success of the project.

One way we plan to do this is by using the token to pay for services within the ecosystem. For example, developers could use the token to pay for hosting or other services that they need to run their agents. Users could also use the token to pay for premium features or access to exclusive agents.

Another way we plan to capture value is through a portion of the revenue generated by agents in the ecosystem. For example, if an agent helps a user generate income, a small percentage of that income could be used to fund the Eliza treasury. This treasury could then be used to support the development of the project or to provide rewards to token holders.

We are still exploring different models, and the final tokenomics will be announced before the token launch. However, our main goal is to create a sustainable and valuable ecosystem that benefits all participants.

Cross-Chain Development and Blockchain Selection

Q12: Eliza is currently mainly deployed on Solana. Are there any plans to expand to other blockchains, such as Ethereum, BNB Chain, or Aptos?

Shaw: We are actively exploring cross-chain development and are considering several options.

One possibility is to integrate Eliza with cross-chain protocols, such as LayerZero or Axelar. This would allow agents to interact with multiple blockchains without needing to be redeployed.

Another option is to create separate versions of Eliza for each blockchain. This would allow us to optimize the codebase for each chain and to integrate with chain-specific features.

Ultimately, the decision of which blockchains to support will depend on several factors, including community demand, technical feasibility, and the availability of resources.

We are also open to working with other teams to develop cross-chain solutions for Eliza. If you have any ideas or proposals, please feel free to reach out to us.

Vision for Open-Source AGI and the Future of AI Agents

Q13: Finally, let's talk about the future of AI agents and your vision for open-source AGI (artificial general intelligence).

Shaw: I believe that AI agents have the potential to revolutionize many aspects of our lives. They can help us be more productive, efficient, and creative.

However, it is important to approach this technology with a balanced perspective. While AI agents can bring many benefits, they also come with potential risks and challenges.

One of the biggest challenges is ensuring that AI agents are aligned with human values and goals. We need to develop methods for programming and training agents that ensure they behave in a safe, ethical, and beneficial manner.

Another challenge is preventing the centralization of AI technology. If a small number of companies or organizations gain control over the development and deployment
