  • 构建仿真框架CoevolveSim,模拟通用与专业大模型在社交网络中的信念交互。
  • 引入专业模型使共识变化幅度翻倍,且产生影响力不对称现象。
  • 真实信念演化需多样化模型,仅用角色设定无法复现复杂集体行为。

大型语言模型(LLMs)正日益部署于多智能体环境,但其间信念形成与传播过程仍不明确。我们提出CoevolveSim框架,用于研究网络化LLM群体中的信念扩散。该框架可分离并研究三个因素:领域专业化、社会角色分配和社交网络结构。在其中,通用与专业LLM智能体交换并修正信念,每轮中,一个智能体在更新前观察邻居信念摘要。我们运行了1,280次受控仿真,覆盖四种情景、两种网络结构及20个医学指征陈述。结果表明,人格化角色分配和网络结构虽重塑个体信念修正,但对群体共识影响甚微;而引入(微调过的)专业型LLM使共识转变超过一倍,并引发一致的影响力不对称。进一步发现,简单基于持续性的意见动态模型可复现全通用模型群体的集体结果,而异质性群体需依赖群体信念组合与个体身份才能再现共识并预测个体信念转移。研究显示,真实模拟多智能体LLM系统中的信念扩散,需多样化的底层模型,而非仅靠角色提示。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed in multi-agent environments. However, the processes by which beliefs form and propagate among interacting LLMs remain poorly understood. We introduce CoevolveSim, a framework for studying belief diffusion within networked LLM populations. CoevolveSim allows us to isolate and study three factors: domain specialization, social-role assignment, and social network structure. Within this framework, generalist and specialist LLM agents exchange and revise beliefs. In each round, an LLM agent observes a summary of its neighbors' beliefs before updating its own. We run 1,280 controlled simulations spanning four scenarios, two network structures, and 20 medical-indication statements. We find that persona-style role assignment and network structure reshape individual belief revision but have minimal effect on population-level consensus. In contrast, introducing (finetuned) specialist LLMs more than doubles the shift in consensus and gives rise to consistent asymmetries in exerted influence. We further show that simple persistence-based opinion-dynamics models reproduce collective outcomes in all-generalist LLM populations, whereas heterogeneous LLM populations require population-level belief composition to reproduce consensus and agent identity to predict individual belief transitions. Our results indicate that realistic simulation of belief diffusion in multi-agent LLM systems requires a diverse set of underlying LLMs, not persona prompting alone.
