The generative agents, that the Stanford/Google team has created, move about their world, perceive others, initiate interactions, remember past experience and form opinions. According to Park “By interacting with each other, generative agents in Smallville exchange information, form new relationships, and coordinate joint activities. […] these social behaviors are emergent rather than pre-programmed. (2023, 6)”. Strikingly, when one agent was seeded with the intent to plan a Valentine’s day party, that information spread through conversations, a number of agents decided to come, tasks were coordinated, and the party actually took place with a number of agents who congregated at the bar at the right time.
