Core Viewpoint - The emergence of AI Agents is leading to the formation of a new economic layer, referred to as the "Sandbox Economy," where these agents can operate at scales and speeds beyond human oversight [1][2]. Group 1: Characteristics of the New Economy - The new economic system can be characterized by two dimensions: its origin (spontaneous emergence vs. human design) and its degree of separation from the existing human economy (permeable vs. impermeable) [3]. - The rapid proliferation of AI Agents indicates the formation of an independent economic layer that creates value autonomously [2][4]. Group 2: Applications of AI Agents - AI Agents are being applied in various fields, including: - **Scientific Research**: For instance, the AI named Gauss successfully tackled a mathematical challenge in three weeks under the guidance of a professor [9]. - **Robotics**: Robots are assisting in household chores and can also work in factories for tasks like sorting packages [10]. - **Personal Assistants**: New AI agents, such as Meituan's Agent Xiaomei, allow users to place food orders using voice commands [12]. Additionally, office assistants help organize materials and generate reports, enhancing work efficiency [13]. Group 3: Resource Management and Fairness - Conflicts may arise when multiple AI Agents represent different users and compete for the same resources. Researchers suggest using market mechanisms and fair distribution rules to manage resources effectively [14]. - A virtual market concept is proposed where each AI Agent has an equal amount of "virtual currency" to bid for shared resources, ensuring fairness and preventing disparities in resource allocation [16][18]. Group 4: Regulatory Considerations - To ensure a practical and safe virtual agent economy, targeted measures in legal, technical, and policy domains are necessary [19]. - **Legal Responsibility**: A shift from traditional single-entity accountability to a collective responsibility model for AI collaborations is recommended [21]. - **Technical Standards**: Promoting interoperability standards like A2A and MCP protocols to prevent fragmentation in the AI ecosystem is essential [23]. - **Supervisory Framework**: A three-tiered supervision system is proposed, where AI monitors AI, with human oversight as a safety net [24]. - **Regulatory Sandbox Trials**: Small-scale tests in specific scenarios are suggested to observe AI interactions and assess fairness mechanisms [26]. Group 5: Societal Impact and Human Collaboration - Emphasizing the need to reform education to enhance human strengths in critical thinking and problem-solving, rather than allowing AI to completely replace human decision-making [27]. - Strengthening social safety nets to address potential job displacement caused by AI, ensuring that the wealth generated by AI benefits a broad population rather than a select few [28]. Group 6: Market Development - The launch of MuleRun, the world's first AI Agent marketplace, marks a significant step in the AI economy, providing a unified platform for users to access various agents and services [29][30]. - MuleRun also introduces a support program for AI Agent creators, offering financial, marketing, and technical assistance to foster sustainable income growth for creators [32].
