De{A}gent Arena
De{A}gent: The Frontier Hub for Autonomous AI Builders
The De{A}gent Arena is planned as a 5-week experimental innovation residency program, centered on Decentralized AI (DeAI). The program focuses heavily on building, experimenting, and showcasing AI-native digital agents through collaborative events and immersive hackathons. It's an incubator designed to cultivate the next generation of decentralized AI builders and foster the rapid evolution of autonomous AI agents.
Operated by Edge, an R&D powerhouse co-founded by the author of the Transformer Paper, the foundation for modern AI advancements.
Residency Program Overview
Week 1 - Infrastructure & Fundamentals
Establish robust technological foundations including Trusted Execution Environments (TEE), provable inference, and secure communication protocols.
Week 2: Tools & Ecosystem Integration
Enhance AI agents by integrating essential tooling, interoperability layers, and system compatibility.
Explore multi-agent coordination, collective intelligence, and innovative decentralized governance mechanisms.
Week 3: Swarm Intelligence & Decentralized Governance
Week 4: Advanced Integration & Refinement
Further refine agent capabilities, interoperability, and user-centric integration with decentralized platforms.
Public demo day of the AI-native digital agents built throughout the residency, showcasing advancements in autonomous behaviors and real-world use cases.
Week 5: Demo Day – “De{A}gent Uprise”
