    AI agents need ID wallets to be trusted and interoperable with personal and organizational systems, ensuring secure and verifiable transactions.

    AI Agents Should Have ID Wallets for Trust and Interoperability

    Why AI Agents Need ID Wallets
    AI agents are of limited use unless they can be trusted and interoperable with personal and organizational ID wallets. As customers, suppliers, and staff adopt ID wallets, AI agents must seamlessly interact with them while adhering to strict instructions. Crucially, AI agents cannot enter legally binding agreements—responsibility lies with natural or legal persons who must verify transactions using ID-building wallets.

    Key Reasons for AI Agent ID Wallets

    1. Employment-Seeker Analogy: AI agents should present verifiable credentials like human job applicants, using interoperable wallets for data exchange.
    2. Identification & Security: Agents must provide verifiable identification credentials (e.g., for lease contracts or warranties).
    3. Internal vs. External Data: While internal data searches require less security, external data collection demands wallet-based verification.
    4. Delegation of Tasks: When sent on external missions, AI agents need credentials (e.g., power-to-act verification) like human staff, with strict usage controls.
    5. Verification by Counterparties: Other entities (or their AI agents) will expect verifiable credentials (e.g., identity, authority) presented wallet-to-wallet.
    6. Automated Trust: Unified wallet-to-wallet verification ensures ease and reliability in interactions.
    7. Data Aggregation: AI agents must securely collect and transfer data (from open sources to real-time behavioral inputs) for business or personal use.
    8. Agent-to-Agent Trust: ID wallets enable secure, automated exchanges. (LinkedIn post)
