We believe that swarms of specialized agents collaborating on complex tasks will rival today’s top companies in economic output. For this to work, we need a payment protocol that enables these agents to engage in commerce. That’s what we’re building. We demo this by tasking a swarm of four agents to make a music video. Each agent has its own specialization and payment requirement. The orchestrator (built with elizaOS) and video generator agents both want $USDC, the song generator wants $VIRTUALS, while the script generator wants to be paid in its own Virtuals Protocol token, $LARRY. Usually this would be a massive and potentially insurmountable headache for developers. With Nevermined, it just works. Check it out:
