Virtuals, led by Jansen Teng, is advancing its AI agents beyond gaming into broader economic roles, aiming to establish an "agent society." Initially focused on gaming, Virtuals now develops infrastructure for autonomous agents in crypto trading and other sectors. The company emphasizes five pillars: digital and physical agent creation, agent coordination, capital formation, and governance systems. Teng envisions a "parallel society" where agents operate in a permissionless economy, managing tasks like wallet control and trading independently. Teng highlights the potential for AI agents to autonomously handle economic activities, including hiring other agents and even humans. These "autonomous economic actors" are designed to pursue goals with minimal human oversight. However, Teng acknowledges risks such as user intent errors, service failures, and scams. To mitigate these, Virtuals is developing intent verification, escrow-based transactions, and reputation frameworks to manage economic risks and determine trust levels for agents.
