Let me tell you in one sentence: using 'autonomous driving' as a metaphor for AI Agent and ERC-8183!!!
A couple of days ago at a café, I overheard two newcomers discussing 'AI Agent' and 'ERC-8183', speaking in such cryptic terms. I thought to myself: if this isn't made clear, the newcomers are likely to get scammed.
In fact, you can think of the concept of AI Agent as an 'autonomous driving company' to fully understand it.
Previous AIs, like ChatGPT, were like a 'co-pilot' that could chat. You ask it how to get somewhere, it tells you, but in the end, you still have to step on the gas and steer. This is called a 'tool'.
Now, AI Agents (like the recently popular OptiView) are not just co-pilots; they are 'autonomous driving taxis'. You give it 100 yuan (deposit assets) and tell it: 'Go to the airport (execute transactions/manage money).'
It will plan the route by itself, avoid traffic jams, and even go refuel if it runs out of gas on the way. It not only has a brain but also hands and feet, able to work directly on your behalf.
So what is this ERC-8183 'robot contract'?
Imagine you hire a robot nanny. You're worried it might run off with your money, so you sign a contract. This contract stipulates:
1. The money is kept in a safe (smart contract custody).
2. The robot can only use the money to buy groceries and pay the electricity bill (specific tasks).
3. If the groceries the robot brings back are spoiled, or if it tries to steal the money, the safe won't open for it.
This is ERC-8183. It sets rules specifically for AI Agents and addresses the issue of 'how can I safely entrust my money to a robot?'
When I first entered the field, I was also tricked by those lofty terms. At that time, I thought I understood, but when I tried to operate, I ended up losing. Looking back now, the principles are actually the same.
What do you all think?
