Dec. 02, 2025 /Mpelembe Media/ — The academic paper introduces a novel framework for coordinating complex problem-solving in Large Language Model (LLM)-based multi-agent systems. To address the inherent inefficiencies of traditional static agent structures, the authors propose a “puppeteer-style” paradigm where a central orchestrator dynamically selects and sequences agents based on the evolving task state. This centralised orchestrator policy is continuously optimised using reinforcement learning (RL), leveraging a tailored reward function that explicitly balances solution quality with computational efficiency. Empirical results across various closed- and open-domain scenarios demonstrate that this adaptive approach achieves superior performance compared to existing methods while concurrently reducing token consumption. Finally, analysis of the evolving collaboration patterns confirms that the RL-driven policy leads to the emergence of highly compact and cyclic reasoning structures. Continue reading

The value of thought. How human-AI collaboration is measured economically
This touches on how large language models (LLMs) operate! tokenization is the fundamental process in natural language processing (NLP) of breaking down raw text into smaller units called tokens, such as words, subwords, or characters. This is a crucial first step that transforms unstructured text into a structured format that machine learning models can process.
AI’s Cronos Syndrome: Labs Versus App Developers
Nov. 2, 2025 /Mpelembe Media/ — An article from The Economist titled “OpenAI and Anthropic v app developers: tech’s Cronos syndrome,” examines the emerging competitive dynamic between large language model (LLM) providers, such as OpenAI and Anthropic, and the specialised AI application developers that build their businesses atop these models. The article uses the metaphor of Cronos devouring his children to illustrate the fear that the powerful, highly-valued AI labs may eventually usurp the profits of the smaller app-makers like Cursor and Harvey.

AI Agents and the Human-AI Collaborative Intelligence
Oct. 30, 2025 /Mpelembe Media/ — AI Agents are autonomous software systems that use Artificial Intelligence (AI) to perceive their environment, reason, plan, and execute actions to achieve a specific goal on behalf of a user, often without continuous human oversight. They essentially act as intelligent, goal-driven software robots. Continue reading
