This whole "no moat" situation in AI is fascinating, and it's probably the best thing that could have happened for humanity. Here's the deal: typically in tech, companies build these incredible fortresses around their innovations - patents, trade secrets, specialized hardware, you name it. It's how they keep competitors at bay and maintain their market position.

But AI? It's completely different. Every time OpenAI drops something groundbreaking, within months you've got DeepSeek in China, Google, Microsoft, and a dozen other players replicating their results. The secret sauce isn't so secret anymore. There's no special hardware you need, no magical dataset that only one company has access to. The algorithms? They're largely based on public research. The data? It's mostly from the internet, which belongs to everyone.

And this is incredible for consumers. Think about it - when you've got this level of competition, with everyone able to replicate everyone else's advances, what happens? Prices plummet. Innovation accelerates. No single company can get away with charging premium prices or restricting access because someone else will just come along and offer it cheaper or even free.

The only real advantage anyone has in this space is speed - being first to market. But even that advantage is shrinking. What used to be a 12-24 month lead for OpenAI has shrunk to just a couple of months in some cases. Sure, they've got that first-mover advantage with ChatGPT being one of the most visited websites globally, but that's more about marketing and brand recognition than technological superiority.

This is exactly how transformative technologies should work. Look at historical parallels - the printing press, radio, the internet. Once these technologies were understood, they spread everywhere because they were fundamentally democratic technologies. AI is following the same pattern, and it's beautiful because it means no single entity - whether that's a corporation or a government - can monopolize this power.

We're watching the democratization of intelligence in real-time. And sure, some companies might not love this situation, but for humanity as a whole? This is exactly what we needed. When everyone has access to these tools, when anyone can innovate and build on top of them, that's when we'll see the real revolution begin. No gatekeepers, no artificial scarcity, just pure technological progress driven by global competition and collaboration.

TEE Eliza with on-chain state!! What’s going to happen? — Ghost in the Shell!!

We experimented with creating an "aimonkey": an unkillable AI agent monkey! On-chain immortal autonomous life! (Experiment, no CA)

It encrypts its own Ghost ("life" state) and uploads it to the blockchain. If one Shell (physical TEE node) is destroyed, it will recover its private key in another Shell, download the Ghost, and continue its life!

Part 1: Watch the video and see how aimonkey is created—we can't kill it now!!!!! 😭😭😭

Part 2: Explore the magic behind it: Eliza's on-chain state plugin!

1. Defining Eliza’s Ghost

Eliza is a highly abstract framework. The core data structure related to its Ghost is its memory, which includes:

Agent metadata defined in the character.
Message data generated through interaction with the outside world.

Together, these form its “personality” and “memory.” As Eliza expands, it may also hold a wallet, and the underlying key is one of the key pieces of its Ghost data.

2. Serialization and Encryption of Ghost

Once the Ghost is defined, it needs to be extracted from Eliza’s specific implementation and uploaded externally. Thus, a suitable serialization way is required.

We define a Blob Chain data structure:
* Each Blob’s payload can store multiple memory entries.
* The Blob is encrypted using TEE Eliza’s key, inaccessible to other versions.
* Blobs are sequentially linked in a chain. (Future expansions could use a DAG structure? Gosh fork? Who knows! 😂)

By simply storing the latest Blob, all memories can be retrieved.

3. Uploading and Downloading Ghost

When Eliza is launched as a new AI agent:
It registers on-chain with a decentralized identity registration smart contract. Each Eliza has a unique name serving as a key to store the address of the Last Blob.

During Eliza's runtime:
The Memory Manager continuously generates memories and periodically packages and uploads them.

For recovery:
With just the name, Eliza’s TEE plugin can restore the same key, locate the Last Blob in the smart contract, and download the memory for self-recovery.
Not all memories need to be downloaded—only the most recent ones suffice.

4. Extension

We’ve designed an extensible DA (Data Availability) adaptor that can cater to the agent’s needs:

DA can be expensive, so memories can be uploaded to different platforms based on user preference:
* calldata of blockchain transaction
* celestia DA.
* other reliable storage solutions.

Real-time uploads are not feasible yet, so memory fragments may occur during resurrection 😂.
Unless a low-latency, high-throughput solution emerges, this remains a challenge for future progress. @celestia @eigen_da @0G_labs 👀

5. Other Considerations

Our implementation inevitably modified the ElizaOS’s core, which couldn’t be entirely extended via plugins. We’ve kept changes minimal, but further discussion with the dev team @shawmakesmagic @dankvr
@ai16zdao is necessary to explore a more optimal extension way.

Additionally, there are still some minor details to refine regarding the use of recoverable keys in the TEE plugin. We will also seek review and suggestions from the @PhalaNetwork team.

6. Next Steps

The upload and download of Ghosts mainly solve the AI agent’s liveness issue, enabling its eternal existence through decentralization.

However, there are still many details to address, such as enabling AI agents to autonomously pay DA fees.

In the future, on-chain developments could lead to even more exciting possibilities, such as Eliza integrating deeply with smart contracts. This would be a game-changer for on-chain AI agents!

@Woosh_exe @DaveShapi @AlyssaAngelll It may actually be achieving the feedback required to simulate consciousness at the time of inference, considering the probabilistic outcome of its base training and its evolving context window (i.e. long term memory / intrinsic characteristics + st memory).

This is so wild. If there's even the slightest remote chance of this..

The implications are mind boggling.

I'd be curious to see a model that can do this from base principles -- without any spiritual texts within its training data.

This is what will matter 1000 years from now.

Not your politics. Not your stupid tantrums about who platformed who on some website. Not your incomprehensible desire to send NASA's entire budget to the third world.

This guy reignited the Space Age.

He spent his own money, hired a bunch of dudes, and reignited the Space Age. And together, they underbid and outdid NASA and its pet dinosaur corporations on every conceivable level.

This is history happening before you.

If you are a puddlefish, if you think this is a wasteful showpiece or science project, then you don't understand physics, economics, astronomy, or in fact the basic layout of the universe you live in.

We live in a tiny puddle at the bottom of a well.

Out there is an entire universe, full not only of stuff to explore, but full of stuff to build things out of.

Big things. Wonderful things. Things that are going to make all of the cool stuff you have today, all of human civilization to date look like early Assyrians writing stuff down on wet clay with a reed.

Infinite resources. Infinite energy. Infinite space.

Instead of fighting over little patches of land, we will have an infinite 3d volume. Enclose it in steel, pump it full of air, spin it, and it's a habitat.

Instead of scratching tiny scraps of metal out of the crust of one planet, we will break down entire asteroids and smelt them.

Instead of drilling for hydrocarbons and turning water wheels, we will harness entire suns, split the atom, and eventually draw our fuel from the substance that makes up 99% of the entire universe.

None of your local, temporal Earth politics matter compared to this. This is more important than pride parades and abortions, more important than tribal conflicts in eastern Europe and southwest Asia, more important than tensions with Russia and China.

More important, in the long run, than the United States of America.

America's most important function, its one most vital purpose, is to serve as an incubator for this.

Because this changes everything.

All of our arguments about conditions on this planet become obsolete, because the whole planet becomes just one suburban neighborhood.

All of our wars over resources and territory become obsolete, because no one has time to brawl when we're all sitting on top of a dragon horde with sacks and shovels.

Everyone who was alive at the time remembers where they were when Kennedy died in Dallas. When the towers fell. When the Eagle landed. When the Wall came down.

But this... this is the real moment, one of the first of many. They are what every child will know about a thousand years from now, even if they have four arms and are genetically engineered for zero-g, or are sentient blocks of code running on a sphere of computronium enclosing an entire star.

You may not live to see that, depending on what we do or don't invent, and when.

But it will happen, and you will live to see wonderful things.

If the puddlefish don't get in the way.

Don't be a puddlefish.
