Episode notes

This chapter explores the intriguing concept of the Dark Forest and the expansive possibilities it offers, transitioning into a discussion on the multifaceted nature of the metaverse. It delves into machine interactions, alien-like entities, and the distinct characteristics of the Dark Forest setting in contrast to traditional video games.

In today’s episode, we’re exploring the frontier of onchain universes, on Ethereum.

Autonomous Worlds is the new frontier of digital onchain universes, being pioneered by the Lattice team, of which Justin Glibert on the show today is the co-founder and CEO.

Ethereum is not just a financial computer, but a root of state for an infinite number of universes, all with their own laws of physics, objects, players, agents, and state… and, like our universe, still continues with, or without, our presence.

Justin walks us through the evolution of Autonomous Worlds. Get ready because you're going to get a taste of where the Internet has always been pointing towards… it just took us a while to get here.
