<a href="https://www.matrix.one/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Matrix.One</a>, the decentralized protocol accelerating the development of human-like AI characters, is thrilled to announce that their flagship product, <a href="https://www.avatar.one/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Avatar.One</a>, has surpassed 120,000 monthly active users worldwide since it launched earlier this year, with many of the users spending over three hours chatting with their personalized AI companions. Built on Solana, with more than 100,000 connected Solana wallets, Avatar.One enables users to easily create their ideal 3D AI companion to help fight the loneliness epidemic worldwide.Avatar.One’s avatar maker allows users to define the AI companion’s personality, choosing from hundreds of thousands of variations, and even giving it a live AI-generated voice. Users get to chat unfiltered with their characters, flirt, receive selfies and videos, and create memories together. They can even further develop the AI character’s personality by adding memories.Last year, the World Health Organization (WHO) <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2023/nov/16/who-declares-loneliness-a-global-public-health-concern" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">declared</a> loneliness a “global public health concern” that could be as bad for people’s health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day. Among the older adults, loneliness is associated with a 50% higher risk of developing dementia and a 30% increased risk of stroke.According to a Harvard University <a href="https://mcc.gse.harvard.edu/reports/loneliness-in-america" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">survey</a>, 61% of Americans aged 18 – 24 experience severe loneliness. Another Harvard <a href="https://www.hbs.edu/ris/Publication%20Files/24-078_3deb075c-780b-4c05-8c0b-e13fcd2dc8b9.pdf" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">study</a> conducted this year suggests that interaction with AI companions reduces loneliness on par with interacting with another human. Further studies have also <a href="https://www.emerald.com/insight/content/doi/10.1108/JRIT-03-2024-0073/full/html#:~:text&#61;By%20leveraging%20machine%20learning%20algorithms,et%20al.%2C%202020%29." rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">revealed</a> AI Companions can assist in social and emotional skill development.Mark Studholme, Co-Founder of Avatar.One and Matrix One, said, “I envision a future where every living person can own an AI character they define. These AI characters can help them with daily tasks, whether that be reminding you of your mom’s birthday, watching Netflix with you on the couch, or even paying your taxes.”The loneliness epidemic is a significant problem. But with the rise in AI technology and its rate of development, it’s possible to build a future where everyone has a full-time 3D companion to help with everything from conversation to advice on cooking, reminders about important events, submitting taxes, financial management, and more. The quality of the chat experience is constantly improving and better able to emulate real human interactions as AI models get more refined.Avatar.One is powered by Matrix One’s custom built decentralized protocol, which boasts a character studio, avatar maker, and a vast library of LLMs. From this technology, 3D AI characters can be integrated with game engines such as Unreal, Unity and Three.js. Matrix One allows fully animated AI powered characters to be delivered across many different mediums including web, mobile, VR, AR and more. As a result, all avatars are downloadable for use in over 200 games and applications.Avatar.One prioritizes user safety and privacy. All interactions and user data are stored in an encrypted database using SSH and kept confidential, never to be shared with third parties. It also uses passwordless authentication to ensure that a user’s password cannot be stolen.The user growth milestone comes as Matrix.One prepares for its upcoming token generation event (TGE) on Polkastarter, Seedify and ChainGPT in the weeks before the token’s listing on centralized exchanges. The $MATRIX token enables participation and transaction within the Matrix One network, allowing users to access, create, and interact with AI characters, besides giving holders governance rights.Avatar.One is available to anyone above the age of 18 who feels AI companions can alleviate their loneliness. The platform plans to make on-chain characters available soon, allowing users to fully own their character and interaction history.<h3 id="strong-about-avatar-one-strong">About Avatar.One</h3>Powered by Matrix.One’s custom-built decentralized protocol, Avatar.One is a 3D AI companion platform.
