LLM-Powered Swarms: A New Frontier or a Conceptual Stretch?
Swarm intelligence traditionally refers to systems of simple, decentralized agents whose local interactions lead to emergent, collective behavior. Recently, the term 'swarm' has been extended to describe AI systems like OpenAI's Swarm, where large language models (LLMs) act as collaborative agents. This paper contrasts traditional swarm algorithms with LLM-driven swarms exploring how decentralization, scalability, and emergence are redefined in modern artificial intelligence (AI). We implement …

Positive Sharing and Abstract Machines
Wu's positive $λ$-calculus is a recent call-by-value $λ$-calculus with sharing coming from Miller and Wu's study of the proof-theoretical concept of focalization. Accattoli and Wu showed that it simplifies a technical aspect of the study of sharing; namely it rules out the recurrent issue of renaming chains, that often causes a quadratic time slowdown. In this paper, we define the natural abstract machine for the positive $λ$-calculus and show that it suffers from an inefficiency: the quad…
