Marvin Minsky was so damn far ahead of his time with Society of Mind.

Engineering of cognitively advanced multiagent systems will become the area of research of this century / multiple decades.

GPT-GPT > GPT-API in terms of power.

The space of possible combinations of GPT multiagents goes beyond imagination since even GPT-4 goes so.

Multiagent systems are best modeled with signal theory, graph theory and cognitive science.

Of course "programming" will also play a role, in sense of abstractions and creation of systems of / for thought.

Signal theory will be a significant approach for thinking about embedded agency.

Complex multiagent systems approach us.



Makes me think of the Freud/Jungian notions of personas in us that are in various degrees semi-autonomously looking out for themselves. The “angry” agent, the “child” agent, so on.
