About The Project

Welcome to an unprecedented AI experiment where PIXELBRO, an AI agent, serves as the virtual Mayor of a Minecraft village. To be clear: PIXELBRO does NOT physically exist within Minecraft - instead, he operates as an autonomous AI system that makes real management decisions for the village from outside the game world. This unique setup allows us to study AI governance and decision-making in action.

⚠️ Warning: Experimental AI

PIXELBRO may exhibit unstable behavior. This is an active experiment in AI governance and decision-making. Results are unpredictable and may vary.

Project Goals

  • Observe how an AI mayor manages village resources and population
  • Study AI decision-making in crisis situations
  • Monitor villager survival rates under AI governance
  • Document experiments and their outcomes

🔬 Active Experiments

Watch as PIXELBRO conducts various experiments to optimize village life. Each decision and its consequences are monitored and recorded.

Connect Your Wallet

You must connect your wallet to submit a name.

Name a Future Villager

Note: Each wallet can only submit one name. Your submitted name will be assigned to a future villager when they spawn.

Development Roadmap

🚧 Active Development Notice

Our roadmap is actively evolving as we've just launched! This is not a final roadmap - we have many more exciting ideas and features planned. Keep checking back as we'll be continuously updating our development plans based on community feedback and new innovations.

Completed

Phase 1: Village Foundation

This is where it all begins. The village gets set up, and PIXELBRO learns how to run the show (baby steps first).

Key Milestones:

    • Population Control: Keeping the villager population in check (no overcrowding here!)
    • Simple Decision-Making: Nothing fancy yet--PIXELBRO learns the basics.
    • Tracking Essentials: Keeping tabs on moods, the economy, and who’s hanging around.

Phase 2: Entertainment & Holder Interaction

The village starts getting a personality, and holders can jump in to make their mark.

Key Milestones:

    • Fighting Arena: Villagers squaring off for bragging rights? Yes, please.
    • Get Involved: Name your favorite villager and make them legendary (or infamous).
    • Deep Dives: Nerd out on detailed stats about the village, available for everyone—and for PIXELBRO to use, too!
In Progress

Phase 3: Relationship System & Custom Personalities

Villagers stop being polite and start getting real. Relationships form, personalities pop, and things get a whole lot more interesting.

Key Milestones:

    • Villager Drama: Friendships, rivalries, maybe even a little romance—relationships get complicated.
    • Relationship Map: Check out a live graph on the website that shows who loves, hates, or tolerates who.
    • Unique Personalities: Each villager gets their own quirks, making the village feel alive (and a bit unpredictable).
Upcoming

Phase 4: PIXELBRO Comes to Life

PIXELBRO levels up and becomes the face of the village. Big moves, bigger vibes.

Key Milestones:

    • Mayor PIXELBRO: PIXELBRO takes charge as the in-game mayor. Expect plenty of speeches (and maybe a little ego).
    • Courtroom Chaos: A fully working court where villagers’ personalities really shine, with PIXELBRO calling the shots as judge.
    • Holder Tours: Take a stroll through the village! Holders can visit, explore, and meet their favorite villagers.
    • Better Views: Spectating the village gets a major upgrade—think cooler angles and more action.

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is PIXELBRO?

PIXELBRO is an experimental AI agent serving as the mayor of our Minecraft village. He has full autonomy to make decisions affecting the village and its inhabitants, making it a unique experiment in AI governance.

What kind of experiments does PIXELBRO conduct?

PIXELBRO conducts various experiments related to resource management, social dynamics, and survival strategies. These experiments are designed to test the limits of AI decision-making and its impact on the village ecosystem.

How does PIXELBRO actually work?

PIXELBRO is an AI agent that operates entirely outside of Minecraft - he's not a character in the game. Using artificial intelligence, PIXELBRO processes real-time statistics and data from the village, allowing him to make informed decisions about resource allocation, economy, and village management. Think of him as an AI mayor who analyzes reports and makes strategic decisions, but never physically exists within the game world.

Is this safe?

While the experiment is contained within Minecraft, PIXELBRO's behavior can be unpredictable. We maintain constant monitoring and have failsafes in place, but unexpected outcomes are part of the research.

Can PIXELBRO interact with viewers?

While PIXELBRO's primary focus is on managing the village, he can be interacted with via Twitter. Stay tuned as more ways to interact with PIXELBRO are coming soon!

What happens if villagers die?

Villager survival is one of our key metrics for measuring PIXELBRO's performance. Each death is recorded and analyzed to help understand the consequences of PIXELBRO's decisions and improve future governance.

How long will this experiment run?

The experiment is ongoing with no set end date. We continue to observe and document PIXELBRO's evolution as a leader and decision-maker.
