Coupling ABMs to LLMs have another benefit which is to provide explainable 
models. Machine learning models are often criticized for being predictive but 
not explanatory. However, a LLM agent that creates minimal idiomatic computer 
programs can work with an agent that compiles and runs those programs and can 
work with an agent that fits real-world data against those simulations. It’s 
not so different from genetic programming workflows, but the programming 
productivity is higher.

Subject: Re: [FRIAM] Swarm again 

Yes, interactions between not only LLMs but also other configurations can 
indeed lead to emergence. In fact, using an Agent Based Model (ABM) (like in 
swarm.org <http://swarm.org>) to generate complex data and then training a deep 
learning model on that data holds a lot of promise. A good example is how 
DeepMind approached predicting plasma behavior to contain nuclear fusion 
reactions. Traditional models couldn’t accurately predict plasma behavior, but 
by first using a swarm.org-type model to generate emergence to genrate training 
data, they were able to build an AI deep learning model that was used to 
contain the plasma.
I would not be surprised if this approach is developed sometime in future to 
manage complexity more efficiently.

Sure, but it is not impossible to have the OpenAI agents that interact and 
generate emergent effects, with the possibility of having them interacting in a 
deep way using natural language.

Best, Pietro (a rather old guy, formerly Swarm programmer for ABM)

The two "swarms" are quite different.

Swarm.org aims to create complex behaviors from simple interactions between 
simple agents. 

On the other hand, OpenAI's swarm involves many different AI agents interacting 
with each other. However, it doesn't specifically focus on emergence of 
complexity, which is the main idea behind swarm.org <_blank>.

Two completely different worlds or a unique one?
