I used to think that once an AI agent is on the chain, it could be "completely automated." Now I see that the truly worry-free tasks are just data checking, path calculation, and transaction splitting. When it comes to signing, humans still need to take responsibility: it might treat tokens with the same name, phishing contracts, or strange authorizations as "executable steps." If you let it confirm on its own, basically you're passing the buck to the model, but the blockchain itself won't take responsibility.



Another aspect is risk control. The agent is good at tracking the optimal profit curve, but when faced with black swan events (oracle glitches, sudden liquidity thinning, MEV extraction going off the charts), it may not know when to "stop." My current approach is: it provides suggestions, I only give very small limits + short-term authorizations, whitelist key contracts, and manually review them; I used to think this was troublesome, but now I prefer to be slower and safer.

Recently, everyone has been talking about modularization and the DAO layer, developers are excited—I understand that. It's normal for users to be confused... If the agent can hide this complexity, that would be great, but "hiding complexity" doesn't mean "eliminating risk." In the end, someone still needs to watch the final gate. For now, let's keep it simple and stable.
