Many people think of the metaverse as just a place, but it's actually completely different. I saw Animo Kakuranzu's Yuki Ha say something like this.

His argument is quite interesting, and it seems that the essence of the metaverse is not a physical space, but rather a layer of interaction. And within that, what really becomes important is the 100 billion AI agents.

Why are AI agents needed to such an extent? In a metaverse environment, intelligent systems that interact directly with users are necessary. These agents will handle all functions such as transactions within the metaverse, content creation, and user support. From Yuki Ha's perspective, the metaverse is not just a 3D space but an economic zone where AI actively operates.

Current discussions about the metaverse seem to focus too much on visual graphics and immersion. But the real innovation lies not there, but in the intelligence layer. A metaverse with 100 billion AI agents working is, when you think about it, quite futuristic.

It's insightful to hear industry insiders' opinions like this, and the potential of the metaverse might still be underestimated by many people.
