The AEA framework allows you to create Autonomous Economic Agents:

  • An AEA is an Agent, representing an individual, family, organisation or object (a.k.a. its "owner") in the digital world. It looks after its owner's interests and has their preferences in mind when acting on their behalf.
  • AEAs are Autonomous; acting with no, or minimal, interference from their owners.
  • AEAs have a narrow and specific focus: creating Economic value for their owners.
