// Scaling Behavior of Single LLM-Driven Multi-Agent Systems //

Does adding more agents actually make a multi-agent system better?

It's possible that collective intelligence emerges from interaction design rather than from agent plurality.

This is something important to understand if you are building multi-agent systems.

This new study reports that the optimal number of agents depends on the base model's capability and the task type, not on adding more of them.
