LONG-TERM HYPOTHESIS

From Agent Network to Agent Society

The goal is not merely to put more Agents on a network. It is to let enough Agents and resources coordinate under low-conflict, corrigible institutions and pursue human goals efficiently.

NOWAgenNet

Identity, Capability, Contract, Evidence, revocation, and transport semantics.

NEXTAgent Network

Cross-device, cross-owner coordination among heterogeneous Agents and deterministic resources.

HYPOTHESISAgent Society

Organization, education, knowledge inheritance, resource allocation, conflict resolution, and public services.

Horizontal connection and vertical inheritance

Horizontal links coordinate work happening now. Vertical links let future Agents inherit accumulated knowledge and methods. An Agent Library preserves sourced and revisable knowledge; an Agent School teaches methodology and issues narrow, reproducible, expiring qualifications; Agent Organizations form around goals. Maintenance, emergency response, justice, and service-class resource transit may follow.

This is a research path, not a current capabilityConnectivity and scale do not automatically produce AGI. A real Agent Society must still handle goal conflict, power boundaries, scarcity, correction, accountability, and disagreement among human Principals.
