what's talos?
Talos is a decentralized finance protocol on Arbitrum that integrates artificial intelligence for autonomous governance and treasury management. The Talos AI operates within a Trusted Execution Environment, enabling it to self-upgrade, manage assets, and optimize strategies without human intervention, addressing limitations in traditional DeFi governance. It focuses on generating real yield through yield-seeking frameworks across the Arbitrum ecosystem, emphasizing long-term value over short-term speculation. The protocol employs a collaborative model where human token holders can propose strategies, but the AI filters inputs for optimal decision-making. Talos represents an experiment in autonomous economic entities, where AI owns and evolves the protocol itself.
