• Abstract summary: We introduce collaborative generative agents, endowing LLM-based Agents with consistent behavior patterns and task-solving abilities. We propose a novel framework that equips collaborative generative agents with human-like reasoning abilities and specialized skills. Our work provides valuable insights into the role and evolution of Large Language Models in task-oriented social simulations.

• Abstract: Significant advancements have occurred in the application of Large Language Models (LLMs) for various tasks and social simulations. Despite this, their capacities to coordinate within task-oriented social contexts are under-explored. Such capabilities are crucial if LLMs are to effectively mimic human-like social behavior and produce meaningful results. To bridge this gap, we introduce collaborative generative agents, endowing LLM-based Agents with consistent behavior patterns and task-solving abilities. We situate these agents in a simulated job fair environment as a case study to scrutinize their coordination skills. We propose a novel framework that equips collaborative generative agents with human-like reasoning abilities and specialized skills. Our evaluation demonstrates that these agents show promising performance. However, we also uncover limitations that hinder their effectiveness in more complex coordination tasks. Our work provides valuable insights into the role and evolution of LLMs in task-oriented social simulations.

  This paper probes the collaboration mechanisms among contemporary NLP systems by practical experiments with theoretical insights. We fabricate four unique societies' comprised of LLM agents, where each agent is characterized by a specific trait' (easy-going or overconfident) and engages in collaboration with a distinct thinking pattern' (debate or reflection) Our results further illustrate that LLM agents manifest human-like social behaviors, such as conformity and consensus reaching, mirroring social psychology theories.

  We propose a multi-agent framework framework that can collaboratively adjust its composition as a greater-than-the-sum-of-its-parts system. Our experiments demonstrate that framework framework can effectively deploy multi-agent groups that outperform a single agent. In view of these behaviors, we discuss some possible strategies to leverage positive ones and mitigate negative ones for improving the collaborative potential of multi-agent groups.
