Virtuals Protocol is building infrastructure for a nation of AI agents. It supports autonomous AI agents across gaming, entertainment, social platforms, and other digital environments.

### AI agent infrastructure for digital experiences

AI agents can shape digital experiences across multiple environments. They enhance engagement in social platforms, virtual worlds, and interactive games.

### Autonomous and multimodal AI agent capabilities

Virtuals AI Agents plan and pursue goals autonomously. They are multimodal, communicating through text, speech, and 3D animation. They interact with environments, from Roblox gameplay to TikTok gifts and onchain wallets.

An AI influencer can also function as a gaming NPC across Roblox and Telegram games. Agents maintain memory across applications, enabling deeper and longer-lasting user connections.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://whitepaper.virtuals.io/about-virtuals-1/virtuals-protocol-building-a-nation-of-ai-agents.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
