Physical or operational constraints often impose communications limitations on autonomous agents. Such limitations complicate monitoring or multiagent coordination.
The article discusses autonomous systems as the pinnacle of AI development, emphasizing the need to blend connectionist and symbolic AI within systems engineering. It introduces a generic agent architecture that organizes behavior around long‑term memory and outlines challenges in linking sensory data to structured memory, goal‑oriented decision making, planning, and agent coordination for collective intelligence. The authors also explore agent trustworthiness, noting it extends beyond behavior to include cognitive validity, and propose methods for its evaluation while highlighting the gap between current capabilities and the envisioned autonomous multi‑agent systems.

arXiv:2511. 22226v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The standard theory of model-free reinforcement learning assumes that the environment dynamics are stationary and that agents are decoupled from their environment, such that policies are treated as being separate from the world they inhabit.

The paper introduces Synthetic Linguistic Agency (SLA), a framework that defines linguistic agency in terms of embodiment, participation, and precariousness. It presents two studies: one that operationalizes SLA criteria and identifies existing systems, and another that builds an Embodied Mortal Agent (EMA) using mortality‑grounded reinforcement learning. Experiments show the EMA’s linguistic choices depend on its body and social history, influence partner behavior, and adapt over time, demonstrating SLA in an artificial agent.
