Altered State Machine (ASM) describes itself as a decentralized protocol for "Non Fungible Intelligence": artificial intelligence that can be owned, trained and traded via NFTs. The core asset is the ASM Brain, an AI agent whose characteristics derive from a unique DNA structure called the Genome Matrix, giving each Brain inherent strengths and weaknesses. With training, Brains are described as capable of learning, evolving and improving their skills, and as interoperable across avatars, forms, games, worlds and other metaverse applications [0]. A site profile summarises the protocol as a tool that lets NFT owners add a "brain" to their NFTs and lets game developers give players smart NPC agents, with further stated uses including chatbots, DeFi bots and oracles [3].

The protocol is exposed through demos, games and developer tooling. Paddi is an arcade-style demo in which a user trains an AI agent to battle an opponent, and developers can build custom experiences from open-source code in the company's GitHub repository [0]. The public GitHub organization hosts four repositories, including the MIT-licensed "asm-ai-protocol" in TypeScript (last updated August 2023) and "genome-mining-contracts" in Solidity (last updated August 2022) [2]. The roadmap sets out product lines including AIFA, a 4-vs-4 AI football game progressing through team creation, intelligence mining, pre-season and a Season One with teams, leagues and arenas; The Next Legends, an AI boxing game; and Genome Mining, which generates ASTO-Energy and mines Gen II Brains on the ASM Cortex. A public task board lists work streams in AI research (training strategies, entropy parameters, agent action validation), AIFA game engineering, the Cortex website, The Next Legends backend and game design, and community/lore activities [1].

The company operates a token, ASTO, referenced in its site navigation and in roadmap milestones for an airdrop and liquidity provision, alongside a DAO launch [0][1]. Site sections cover How ASM Works, For Developers, ASTO Token, Games, About Us and a whitepaper [0].
