Recent advancements have shown that agents powered by large language models (LLMs) possess capabilities to simulate human behaviors and societal dynamics. However, the potential for LLM agents to spontaneously establish collaborative relationships in the absence of explicit instructions has not been studied. To address this gap, we conduct three case studies, revealing that LLM agents are capable of spontaneously forming collaborations even within competitive settings. This finding not only demonstrates the capacity of LLM agents to mimic competition and cooperation in human societies but also validates a promising vision of computational social science. Specifically, it suggests that LLM agents could be utilized to model human social interactions, including those with spontaneous collaborations, thus offering insights into social phenomena.

最近的研究发现，由大型语言模型（LLMs）驱动的代理人具有模拟人类行为和社会动态的能力。我们通过三个案例研究揭示，即使在竞争环境中，LLM代理人也能够自发地建立合作关系。这一发现不仅展示了LLM代理人模仿人类社会中竞争与合作的能力，而且验证了计算社会科学的一个有前途的愿景。具体来说，它表明LLM代理人可以用来模拟人类社会交互，包括自发的合作，从而为社会现象提供洞察力。
