Ah yes, just what we needed—AI-powered degen agents running around Ronin. Sky Mavis just inked a deal with NRN Agents (from the brains behind AI Arena) to bring their AI models onto the chain in Q1 2025. So basically, we’re getting “millions of AI gaming agents” deployed across Ronin’s ecosystem. What could possibly go wrong?

First up: proof-of-concept demos in some select games. Expect these AI agents to flex their skills in dynamic multiplayer environments. Translation? Get ready to be outplayed by a bot that never tilts, never sleeps, and definitely doesn’t forget to set stop-losses. Eventually, this will expand to a full-on AI invasion across Ronin.

Kathleen Osgood from Sky Mavis is hyping this up as "Ronin will be the home to AI X Gaming X Memes." So, AI is about to level up the gaming ecosystem, with more experiments, more integrations, and probably more copium for Ronin maxis.

To ease us into our AI overlords, AI Arena is launching a community campaign where you can help train these agents. Great—now we’re doing unpaid internships for machine learning models. And in Q2, the NRN SDK will roll out to Ronin studios, coinciding with the network becoming permissionless. Nothing like an open playground for AI-powered gaming madness.

Oh, and if the AI news wasn’t enough, Ronin has also gone full meme mode. Meet Tama Meme, the first fair launch token platform on Ronin. It dropped on January 21st, and in just a week, 7,000 tokens were born, $25M was traded, and 69,000 degen wallets aped in. That’s one hell of a launch—but let’s be real, 6,900 of those tokens are probably already abandoned.

So, to summarize:

✔️ AI bots coming to flex on you in Ronin games

✔️ Ronin going permissionless, aka AI agents running wild

✔️ Meme coins everywhere

The future of gaming, ladies and gentlemen. Strap in.
