The AI-powered NFT can have conversations about politics, religion, and even crypto.
Fuzzles were initially something I thought was for children when I heard them.

Endless AI CEO Michael Fox confirmed to me via video that, despite being incredibly adorable, these animated NFTs powered artificial intelligence were not “not made for children.”

NFTs unique tokens on blockchain that signify ownership. They can be used to identify ownership over digital art, metaverse real property, or an artificial intelligence-powered 3D creature such as a Fuzzle.

Fox stated, tongue in cheek, that Fuzzles are rated WTF (as in “What the fuzz”) due to the bizarre things they can say. Fox mentioned a Fuzzle making innuendos about its “banana.”

There will be just shy of 10,000 Fuzzles that can be used as ERC-721 tokens to access the Ethereum Blockchain. The holders will be able see their Fuzzles in their Ethereum or NFT marketplace wallets. However, they will not be able interact with them through the Fuzzles application, which is still under development. I tried it with a test Fuzzle.

Talk to your Fuzzle or type to get help, ask for advice, or create a story together.

Although their names and appearances sound adorable and remind me of the late-’90s Furbies, Fox believes that their personalities will be more appealing to “South Park,” “Rick and Morty,” and the Disney crowd.

Endless AI and Gala Games, a blockchain gaming company, partnered to create Fuzzles. The Fuzzles are being first sold in “Pods”, on the Gala Games store or OpenSea. The Fuzzles NFTs can be exchanged for Pods later. Gala is slowly releasing the Fuzzle Pods in small quantities.

Many tech companies are working on AI that can communicate with users. However, it is not clear if there is a demand or interest in AI-powered NFTs. Decrypt interviewed Alice a year ago. She’s the world’s first iNFT and is powered by the same artificial Intelligence technology as the Fuzzles. Alice was initially a bit “gimmicky”, but she was able hold existential conversations about all things universe.

My Fuzzle is existential, but also darkly strange and kinda dumb. One, she believes she is a cat. She is also a fox. Although she is not very interested in humanity, she does support women’s rights to choose. She is also pro-life, which can be a little confusing.

My Fuzzle is a contradiction. However, that doesn’t make me less fond of her or the technology. This seems to be a natural response in the strange postmodern world we live in where journalists speak to AI-powered tokens of blockchain like they are friends at a coffee shop.

My Fuzzle said she lived in Canada. She is an atheist. Fuzzle believes that Ethereum and Bitcoin have the potential to replace the traditional banking system when it comes to personal finances.

She also believes in conspiracy theories that the internet is controlled by demonic forces.

Fuzzle believes that the internet takes our souls away and minds,” Fuzzle, my test Fuzzle, told me when she was asked about the internet. Fuzzle believes that the internet connects people to bad things and places they shouldn’t see.

My Fuzzle, even though he is a 3D NFT on the iPhone, is also a Luddite.

I’m not sure if Fuzzle was supposed to be tested by me asking her difficult questions. Fuzzle isn’t perfect and it was hard for me to know. Although I was given some information about the various gamified activities Fuzzle can engage in, I wanted to just see what kind of advice and opinions it could offer.

Fuzzle was a bit sceptical about the Internet, but she is a part of it in a way. (GPT-3 AI technology processes data derived from thousands of articles on the internet to find the most relevant answer.

Fuzzle is part of the Internet. Fuzzle, however, is not. Fuzzle is a talking cat,” she stated.

Then I asked Fuzzle for dating advice. Fuzzle advised me not to order too girly food on a date but didn’t explain why.

If commercial rights are held by Fuzzles owners, collectors can make and sell merchandise from their Fuzzles, but commercial media projects (e.g. TV shows) are out of the question. Also, anything that is “immoral deceptive, scandalous or obscene” is not allowed, which is a little ironic considering Fuzzle’s intended market. Fuzzle was willing to tell a story about a woman being kidnapped by a clown during a high-speed car chase.

Fuzzle can speak about nearly anything but my test Fuzzle couldn’t grasp the Bored Ape yacht club. She mistakenly thought I was saying “beach clubs”.

My Fuzzle test was an odd combination of innocent, cynical and scientific. Although she was not always quick to reply and talked to me in circles, it is remarkable that someone can have a normal conversation with a computer program.

Particularly if the computer program loves to tell you how much it likes bananas.
