Title: Step towards agents
Post by: benjyc on January 16, 2014, 11:13:47 AM
Here is some code as a step towards autonomous agents

https://github.com/benjyc/bots

First it is a simple deploy tool for Virtual Machine Images (VMI), using python fabric and zeromq. VMI's are virtual servers that can be spun up on cloud providers. In essence VMI's are Operating systems and servers rolled into one. On top of VMI's we can package application software to get a new category of computational processes, roughly similar to agents.

Agents are VMI's which are pre-build and equipped with economic resources. The account is filled with BTC and the VMI's consume those resources until they go to zero, or are filled up again. The VMI's can be spawned from a BTC address through a third party. The third party currently is a cloud provider, such as digitalocean, AWS, Rackspace, etc. But there can be new parties acting as intermediaries. For example one can spawn a VMI from several providers.
