Generative‑AI agents are poised to expand how they transact, collaborate, and make high‑stakes decisions in real time, but only if users can verify their data, actions, and costs. In this fast‑paced session, Hedera Senior Product Manager Ty Smith shows how a public‑distributed ledger delivers the missing trust layer for autonomous intelligence.
You’ll see how cryptographic attestation, fair‑ordered consensus, and native micro‑payments let AI agents prove computation, share verifiable data streams, and settle value across open networks; without the bottlenecks of traditional blockchains.
Ty “Patches” Smith is Senior Product Manager at Hashgraph, directing the roadmap for Consensus & Tokenization Services and leading AI‑native features. He co‑authored HIP‑991, providing simple monetization methods for compute, led the Long‑Term Scheduled Transactions upgrade, and helped create the open-source Hedera AI Agent Kit connecting autonomous agents to on‑chain functions.
A frequent speaker at industry conferences, he champions verifiable consensus, human‑centric UX, and agentic AI to advance mainstream Web3 adoption.
