摘要

Purpose

Recent advances in AI, especially in large language models, have created new opportunities to integrate human and artificial agents through shared linguistic capabilities. This paper presents a multi-agent organizational framework in which human agents, LLMs, and specialized agents (narrow AIs) collaborate via dynamic, topic-based group formation. Topic-driven interactions enable agents to coalesce around evolving interests, supported by threshold-based protocols for temporal adaptation, topic emergence, and participation.

Methods

Within our framework, human agents guide the overall system objectives, while consultant agents (LLMs) provide semantic analysis and mediation, and specialized agents perform focused domain tasks. By leveraging automated topic modeling, the approach eschews rigid ontologies and instead supports adaptive and interpretable content management. Mathematical properties ensure system coherence—across roles, tasks, and timescales—while allowing the natural evolution of interests and groups.

Results

We illustrate the framework’s versatility with example scenarios in emergency response, healthcare research, and financial decision-making, emphasizing how human decision-makers, LLM-based consultants, and specialized worker agents jointly fulfill complex goals through transparent topic alignment and threshold-driven coordination. This formalization advances human-computer interaction as a multi-agent phenomenon that integrates human insight with the strengths of next-generation AI models in a cohesive, evolving system.
