• Abstract: We study the emergence of agency from scratch by using Large Language Model (LLM)-based agents. In previous studies of LLM-based agents, each agent's characteristics, including personality and memory, have traditionally been predefined. We focused on how individuality, such as behavior, personality, and memory, can be differentiated from an undifferentiated state. The present LLM agents engage in cooperative communication within a group simulation, exchanging context-based messages in natural language. By analyzing this multi-agent simulation, we report valuable new insights into how social norms, cooperation, and personality traits can emerge spontaneously. This paper demonstrates that autonomously interacting LLM-powered agents generate hallucinations and hashtags to sustain communication, which, in turn, increases the diversity of words within their interactions. Each agent's emotions shift through communication, and as they form communities, the personalities of the agents emerge and evolve accordingly. This computational modeling approach and its findings will provide a new method for analyzing collective artificial intelligence.

• The Dynamics of Social Conventions in LLM populations: Spontaneous Emergence, Collective Biases and Tipping Points [0.0]
  We investigate the dynamics of conventions within populations of Large Language Model (LLM) agents using simulated interactions. We show that globally accepted social conventions can spontaneously arise from local interactions between communicating LLMs. Minority groups of committed LLMs can drive social change by establishing new social conventions.

  We focus on predicting engagement in dyadic interactions by scrutinizing verbal and non-verbal cues, aiming to detect signs of disinterest or confusion. In this work, we collect a dataset featuring 34 participants engaged in casual dyadic conversations, each providing self-reported engagement ratings at the end of each conversation. We introduce a novel fusion strategy using Large Language Models (LLMs) to integrate multiple behavior modalities into a multimodal transcript''

  We introduce a generative agent architecture called ITCMA-S, which includes a basic framework for individual agents and a framework that supports social interactions among multi-agents. This architecture enables agents to identify and filter out behaviors that are detrimental to social interactions, guiding them to choose more favorable actions.

  Large language models (LLMs) have advanced the development of various AI conversational agents. SocialBench is the first benchmark designed to evaluate the sociality of role-playing conversational agents at both individual and group levels. We find that agents excelling in individual level does not imply their proficiency in group level.

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.
