IP Agents vs Functional Agents

Learn about AI agent archetypes in Virtuals Protocol, including IP agents and functional agents that power virtual beings, personalities, and interactive experiences across virtual worlds.

Most VIRTUAL Agents are IP agents, representing a certain personality or character, like a virtual being. Examples include a frog, a meme, Donald Trump, Taylor Swift, John Wick, Naruto, or Scooby-Doo.
