Getting Started with AI Agents
summary
FetchAI shows a live stack: a 39B-parameter LLM plus Agentverse AI hosting and an Almanac smart contract for discovery; the platform reports ~300,000 registered agents, ~100,000 users, and agents that return real-time results (London transit, EV chargers) or execute DeFi strategies. Agents are free to build and take two–three hours to learn with detailed docs; registration of agents on-chain is periodic to ensure liveness. A hackathon offers $5k/$3k/$2k prizes and 24/7 Discord support.
