TENTANG EPISODE INI
Welcome to Episode 10 of the Agents Unleashed Podcast — the show that helps you find signal in the noisy world of agentic AI.
Hosted by Thomas Maybrier (Digital Media Producer, Valory), this episode features a wide-ranging conversation with Trent McConaghy, co-founder of Ocean Protocol and the Artificial Superintelligence Alliance (ASI).
In This Episode: Trent shares his journey, from early AI-for-chips design to launching Ocean Protocol, an early AI and crypto project. He explains his view on what a truly autonomous AI agent is, why they need sovereignty, and why blockchains are essential.
We also explore:

- How Ocean Protocol evolved
- “Bitcoin as a life form” and what that could mean for AI
- Reasons blockchains matter for AI agents
- What’s next for AGI, ASI, and the future of brain-computer interfaces
