The original title is "The Architecture of On-Chain AI Agent Execution: Beyond Smart Contracts"

Short summary

Real on-chain AI agents don't bolt AI onto smart contracts — they invert the architecture so the agent becomes the primary execution context and the blockchain is its state layer. The article describes agent runtimes with persistent memory pools, decision engines using off-chain or verifiable inference, and action executors. Key constraints include gas costs, finality delay, and state bloat. Platforms like BBIO are building this runtime layer.
