# AI agents as proposal generators could scale fund capability with compute not headcount
BlockRock's design philosophy proposes using AI agents to generate investment proposals, allowing futarchy-governed funds to evaluate more opportunities without expanding human teams. This represents a theoretical approach to scaling decision throughput in decentralized asset management.
**Critical context**: BlockRock's fundraise failed to reach its target ($100 raised vs $500K goal, status "Refunding"), so these AI agents remain a design proposal with no operational validation.
The architecture envisions agents submitting proposals that token holders evaluate through prediction markets, potentially creating a compute-scalable alternative to traditional fund analyst teams.
## Evidence
- BlockRock's charter describes AI agents as proposal generators in their futarchy system
- The design treats proposal generation as separable from evaluation/governance
- No evidence these agents have been built or tested operationally
## Implications
If implemented, this could:
- Reduce marginal cost of evaluating additional investment opportunities
- Shift bottleneck from human research capacity to market liquidity for evaluation
- Create new principal-agent problems between AI proposal quality and token holder incentives
## Counter-evidence
- BlockRock's failed fundraise suggests market skepticism about the model
- No demonstrated examples of AI agents generating viable investment proposals
- Proposal quality may still require human expertise regardless of generation method
