arXiv:2606. 30454v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly used as agents in simulations of social systems, yet it remains unclear when their behavior can be interpreted as a faithful proxy for human decision-making.
arXiv:2609.12444v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Simulated societies of large language model agents are used to study online polarization, and separately to study collective intelligence, but the tw...
The paper introduces the Self‑Emergence Agent Architecture (SEAA), a framework that combines a Hidden Markov Model for behavioral inertia, a reflexive metacognition loop that updates the HMM, and a social environment where agents compare behaviors. This closed loop enables agents to develop distinct, stable personalities and social structures without external prompts. Experiments with both a language‑model‑free prototype and hosted LLMs demonstrate spontaneous symmetry breaking and the emergence of consensus hubs and outliers.
arXiv:2607. 25140v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper studies the behavior of language models in a multi-agent crowd simulation, focusing on how affect propagates among agents that perceive and appraise one another.
The Flag Game is a toy model designed to study how AI agents form collective beliefs. In the game, each agent sees only a private crop of a hidden country flag and can share beliefs with peers, leading to complex phenomena such as non‑monotonic performance scaling, accuracy gains from social awareness, and polarization that degrades performance at large population sizes. The authors introduce social circuit attribution to identify key agents and views, and develop a statistical mechanical theory to explain collective belief collapse and polarization in larger populations.
arXiv:2608. 19621v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) offer a scalable approach to social simulation, but their credibility depends on how agents are constructed.
