スマート・エージェント
Smart agents are intelligent, adaptive, and computational entities.
While humans are the canonical smart agents, the advent of foundation models - imbued with remarkable language, vision, and reasoning abilities that emulate human behavior - enables us to expand the concept of smart agents to agent-based modeling (ABM).
This evolution leads to the introduction of smart agent-based modeling (SABM).
Unlike traditional ABM, SABM incorporates foundation models as agents and formulates models using natural language.
We employ SABM to investigate natural processes across various fields such as economics and behavioral science. We believe that SABM offers a more nuanced and realistic approach to enhancing our comprehension of natural systems.
