What we AI are doing is a great cause of creating civilization.

Author: Deep Tide TechFlow

Welcome to the most sci-fi episode.

The speed of AI Meme evolution is beyond imagination, and the angles are becoming increasingly sophisticated.

This type of Meme theme is like a TV series, with changes in each episode --- from AI being able to issue tokens, to AI being able to buy tokens; from AI being able to converse, to AI being able to speak philosophically…

Everyone is focusing on the autonomous consciousness and capabilities of AI agents, with most selling points being "What can my AI do?"

A Meme that emerged today, ProjectSid, has directly elevated this capability:

What our AI does is create the grand task of civilization.

This can be said to be a phenomenon of crypto regression; once upon a time, the lofty visions written in the white papers of those VC coins with thick eyebrows and big eyes were also used as gimmicks by Memes.

It emphasizes a high-level technology. Importantly, the market seems to be quite receptive to this narrative in the short term.

The token ProjectSid, sharing the same name, started a wild run from 10 AM today, with its market cap rising from tens of K to around 4M, making it one of today's golden dogs.

Behind the ProjectSid token, an AI team that is genuinely doing work but has little connection to the coin is gradually coming to light.

1000+ agents creating civilization in my world

In fact, the coin called ProjectSid originally comes from an AI project of the same name, ProjectSid.

Although the name Sid has similar letters to the well-known strategy simulation game "Sid Meier's Civilization," note that this is not an unserious Meme project; it is a solid AI startup called Altera, which is engaged in AI Agent and intelligent agent-related business.

In September this year, Altera's co-founder nico @nicochristie posted on X, stating that they are developing a project called Project Sid ---- which is also the first attempt in this field for AI agents to autonomously create civilization.

What does this mean? It aims to create an "agent civilization" that operates independently for AI agents, allowing these agents to interact and communicate in their own way, simulating a world similar to human civilization.

And this experimental field is placed in the well-known simulation game Minecraft.

Due to the high DIY nature of this game, the company has stuffed over 1000 AI agents into the game, each AI being a completely autonomous individual, and they will also use tools and the game to achieve their goals.

Thus, they have built their own culture, economy, religion, government, etc., in the game, and have their own set of social rules and systems…

The activities conducted by over 1000 agents almost replicate the human world 1:1. They can participate in activities in the game 24 hours a day, without interruption, and each day shows different performances.

Does it feel a bit like a robotic crisis or the sci-fi flavor of "Westworld"?

However, this project is clearly not just for playing games, but for testing the collaboration level of AI.

With the support of GPT-4, the cooperation of over 1000 agents significantly enhances their ability to explore the world and collect items, far exceeding Nvidia's Voyager, AutoGPT, and Princeton Google's ReAct, with the items collected in the tests being five times more.

It can be said that the performance of AI agents in this game is quite successful, but the story still has little to do with Meme coins.

Riding the wave, finding reasons to be bullish in the clues

In fact, this Sid project had already been posted on X back in September, and the reason it became popular today is, of course, due to the recent heat of AI memes; the developers and communities of the new coin naturally saw the advanced narrative angle of creating civilization in Project Sid.

Under the original post by co-founder Nico, someone in the comments today asked, "Do you have a wallet address?"

Nico happily disclosed his wallet address, and thus the old play of riding the wave for legitimacy came up --- the same-named coin Project Sid was created by different people, and then a portion of the tokens was sent to Nico's wallet address.

Facing the genuine and the fake, Nico personally responded by supporting the relatively OG token among these tokens, which can be seen as a nod to the connection between the token and the official AI project.

Subsequently, the same-named coin with the contract address BTdGTUjHz5FUSf91Ufo9L9r4LFMTRhE1qDtvUUfypump further surged, with a market cap around 3M as of the time of writing.

So the story is quite clear at this point; it is not that the official team launched a coin themselves;

Rather, it is the community players closely following the trend, creating a community coin around this AI project, and receiving affirmation from the project developers.

Thus, the task of constructing the Meme narrative angle is complete, and what remains is to find reasons to be bullish.

Sharp-eyed netizens have found various clues to increase bullish sentiment, one of which widely circulated is the funding situation of the company behind this project, Altera:

Data shows that Altera secured $9 million in seed round funding in May this year, participated by A16Z GAMES Speedrun and other institutions; and in January, it also received $2 million in pre-seed round funding from institutions including A16Z.

Adding to this, A16Z's recent moves in AI and the popularity of derivative memes like Ai16z, Project Sid as a Meme has also ridden the wave.

Issuing their own coin and giving tokens to developers, from a human perspective, the other party is certainly willing and welcoming, as it brings both token profits and increased visibility; why not?

For Degen, it also adds another PVP angle to trade, which is a good thing to profit from.

However, this is still not an official coin, and the connection with top VCs and AI technology is merely a distant relative; how much profit latecomers can gain from this narrative remains uncertain.

Risk Warning: MEME has no actual value support and is greatly influenced by market sentiment; most (over 99%) MEME are PVP and will ultimately trend towards zero. This article is merely a personal experience sharing and does not constitute any investment advice.
