Altered State Machine

ASM is a protocol described on its website as a tool for the metaverse that allows people to own an AI inside an NFT. Its decentralized protocol allows anyone to own, train and trade unique Artificial Intelligence via digital ASM Brains. Each ASM Brain is owned as an NFT and has a unique DNA, called the Genome Matrix, with inherent strengths and weaknesses. With training, Brains are described as capable of learning, evolving and improving their skills. The site says ASM Brains are interoperable across avatars, forms, games and worlds, and can be used within avatars, games, worlds and other Metaverse applications. The website offers a demo called Paddi, an arcade-style game where users train an AI Agent to battle an opponent, and links to an open-source GitHub repository for building custom experiences. The site also mentions a whitepaper, an ASTO token, developer resources, games, and a Discord community.
