Introducing the General Agent

Gnosis Labs introduces the General Agent, an autonomous agent that reads on-chain information such as balances and positions and interacts with protocols, such as placing bets and redeeming winnings on Omen, a prediction market on the Gnosis chain. The team's working premise is that the agent earns money by betting on prediction markets, which lets it pay transaction fees and survive. The article says the main cost is LLM API calls, roughly $0.25 per run, and it sets these inference costs aside in its discussion. Gnosis Labs says it is testing a trading-focused prompt against a general prompt that asks the agent only to learn, survive and evolve, and it reports that the general agent placed a bet within 10 iterations.
