CARV's AI Roadmap: Autonomous Agents on Web3

CARV, a leader in Web3 data coordination, has announced an ambitious new roadmap focused on developing AI Beings: self-governing, on-chain agents with their own identities and economic agency. Unlike typical AI integrations in Web3 that enhance user services, CARV aims to create AI that exists independently as a verifiable lifeform on the blockchain.

Key Features of AI Beings

Sovereign Identity: Each AI Being possesses a unique, verifiable identity (ERC-7231).
On-Chain Existence: AI Beings live and operate directly on the blockchain.
Economic Agency: They can own assets, earn income, and participate in governance.
Evolutionary Capacity: AI Beings learn and adapt through on-chain interactions.

This advancement is enabled by CARV's infrastructure, which includes the SVM Chain, D.A.T.A. Framework, and CARV ID. This infrastructure allows AI agents to evolve from passive data consumers to autonomous actors within decentralized economies.

The AI Being Stack: A Five-Layer Architecture

Infrastructure Layer: The scalable and auditable CARV SVM Chain, optimized for AI operations.
Communication & Computation Layer: Facilitates agent-to-agent communication and autonomous payments.
Identity Layer: Provides verifiable, persistent identity for both humans and agents via CARV ID.
Governance & Awareness Layer: Integrates economic awareness and governance mechanisms into AI agents.
Application Layer: Powers AI-native applications such as companions, decentralized marketplaces, and more.

The Roadmap: Genesis, Pulse, and Convergence

CARV's roadmap is divided into three phases:

Genesis Evolution

This phase introduces the first wallet-native AI agents, secured by CARV ID and utilizing Trusted Execution Environments (TEE) and zero-knowledge (zk) proofs. These agents are being integrated into consumer-facing AI apps launching on Google Play and the App Store. The Model Context Protocol (MCP) ensures context persistence and secure memory while maintaining user data control.

Pulse Evolution

Building on Genesis, this phase introduces on-chain feedback loops allowing AI agents to learn and evolve based on user interactions and staking patterns. Verifier Nodes ensure data validation, and SVM Chain provides high-speed execution. This phase marks the convergence of reinforcement learning and blockchain governance.

Convergence Evolution

The final phase enables collaboration and governance among AI Beings. Agents will negotiate, share information, and co-create outcomes. This will lead to AI-to-AI marketplaces, agent DAOs, and cross-agent governance, fostering new levels of coordination. CARV will transition from a data layer to the coordination engine for these AI-driven economies.

$CARV token plays a crucial role in staking, access, coordination, and governance across all layers.
