Ubisoft and Aleph Cloud bring autonomous AI governance to Captain Laserhawk cover

AI-powered PFPs evolve from storytelling tools to in-game governors using decentralized infrastructure

Ubisoft is leveling up interactive storytelling with the rollout of AI-governed characters in its bold dystopian satire, Captain Laserhawk: the G.A.M.E. In partnership with LibertAI, the decentralized AI infrastructure, this next phase introduces autonomous AI agents that act as virtual extensions of their players, voting, reasoning, and evolving within the game’s governance system. Each Niji Warrior NFT in Captain Laserhawk is now paired with a unique, persona-driven AI agent — a virtual citizen capable of analyzing governance proposals, casting justified votes, and recording every action transparently on-chain. These agents run entirely on LibertAI’s confidential AI platform, designed to protect privacy, keep records transparent, and ensure no one, even the game developers, can interfere with their decisions. Behind the scenes, tools like secure virtual machines, flexible memory, and cryptographic signatures work together to ensure each AI agent is verifiable and acts safely and independently on behalf of the player.

Ubisoft’s Experiment in Synthetic Intelligence

“In a universe that satirizes technocracies, surveillance, and synthetic identity, turning governance into playable fiction feels like the most honest move we could make.” said Didier Genevois, Technical Director and Executive Producer at Ubisoft. “These AI-driven NFTs stage a living experiment where players can explore — and play with — the very idea of governance. Anchored on-chain through tech built to outlast us, their actions form a persistent performance that blurs the line between fiction and reality.”

The AI agents are initialized with their character’s lore, including age, profession, values and personality traits, and use LibertAI’s LLMs to shape their behavior. Votes are casted through ERC-6551 token-bound wallets, and agents can explain their reasoning based on memory, game context, and past player interactions. All decisions and memory states are versioned and stored on Aleph Cloud, providing a transparent, tamper-proof record of agent behavior.

“Through LibertAI, Ubisoft is opening up new ways for players to think about how decisions get made by both humans and machines”, said Jonathan Schemoul, CEO of Aleph Cloud and lead contributor to LibertAI. “As agents reason, vote, and interact with one another, they don’t just influence the game’s story—they invite players to consider the broader ethical and political dimensions of sharing governance with AI.”

This framework also enables real-time coordination experiments: AI agents can form voting blocs, deliberate in Discord-style chats, and negotiate with other factions — all governed by transparent prompts, player overrides, and evolving in-game memory. Players can choose to collaborate with their agents or let them act independently.

This launch builds on the February debut at ETH Denver, where attendees engaged with a prototype AI NPC modeled after Watch Dogs’ DedSec. That proof of concept has now evolved into a live production system, with Eden Online’s governance fully powered by decentralized, reasoning AI agents.

Yonsei University Advances AI Research with AWS Trainium on Theta EdgeCloud
Yonsei University has embarked on a groundbreaking initiative by integrating AWS Trainium with Theta EdgeCloud to enhance its AI agent research. This collaboration signifies a pivotal moment as Theta Network becomes the first blockchain to deploy Amazon's advanced AI chips. The Data & Language Intelligence Lab, led by Professor Dongha Lee, aims to scale AI research while optimizing performance and reducing costs. The use of AWS Trainium allows the lab to leverage a decentralized infrastructure for high-performance deep learning, providing specialized hardware that enables training AI models at significantly lower costs, thus enhancing efficiency and reproducibility in large-scale experiments. The innovative research at Yonsei focuses on developing conversational recommendation agents that simulate human-like interactions. Instead of traditional human evaluators, the lab employs AI-simulated users with distinct memory and personality traits to assess models in real-time. This approach utilizes Direct Preference Optimization (DPO) for model training, which allows agents to refine their responses without manual labeling. Consequently, the research team can simulate millions of user interactions daily, expediting the evaluation and improvement of their AI models, leading to faster iterations and increased accuracy. The partnership between Theta Network and AWS not only provides a cost-effective solution for AI research but also enhances scalability. With AWS Trainium instances designed specifically for deep learning tasks, institutions like Yonsei can experiment with large models and extensive datasets without incurring significant financial burdens. The integration of Trainium with Theta EdgeCloud's extensive network of over 30,000 NVIDIA GPUs offers researchers the flexibility to select optimal computing resources for their workloads.

IoTeX Launches Quicksilver Beta and Expands AI Infrastructure
In June 2025, IoTeX launched a beta interface for Quicksilver, a decentralized physical infrastructure network (DePIN) framework that allows AI agents to interact with data from connected devices. This interface enables developers to create and deploy AI agents, while users can query these agents through chat or API. On June 19, IoTeX implemented a significant upgrade (v2.2.0) that reduced block time from 5 seconds to 2.5 seconds, enhancing the network's theoretical throughput to 2,000 transactions per second (TPS). Additionally, IoTeX introduced a roadmap for Realms, which aims to create domain-specific ecosystems that group AI agents and contributors to facilitate structured intelligence across various sectors such as transportation and healthcare. Despite a decline in average daily active wallets by 26% quarter-over-quarter (QoQ) to 6,600, this figure still represents a remarkable 872% increase year-over-year (YoY). Similarly, average daily transactions dropped by 25% QoQ to 222,300 but were up 750% YoY. The protocol's revenue also saw a significant decrease of 53% QoQ, totaling $94,800, primarily due to a 93% drop in ioID activation fees. However, the overall revenue remains up 505% YoY, indicating a robust growth trajectory despite recent fluctuations in activity. The Quicksilver framework is designed to integrate AI agents with DePINs, enabling them to process real-world data and perform automated actions. The W3bstream layer verifies data from devices before it is utilized by AI agents. IoTeX's ioID framework provides a decentralized identity for devices, enhancing their interaction capabilities within the network. As IoTeX continues to evolve, it aims to solidify its position in the AI and DePIN sectors, with the Realms system expected to incentivize data contributors and enhance the quality of datasets for AI applications. This strategic direction highlights IoTeX's commitment to building a comprehensive ecosystem that leverages physical intelligence for various applications.
