I don't understand the reasoning behind "AI agents will need to transact via crypto" - why? 

I've seen AI agents where users just auth with their own traditional payment credentials to interact with websites. Why crypto? (trying to engage in a good faith discussion)

The AI agents don’t need to get permissions (API keys) from humans to use the chain 😛 also, for similar use cases where crypto is better than, say, Stripe (composability, no geographical txn costs, etc.)
