The difference is that an LLM isn't 1000 different intelligences. It's one intelligence, being asked to pretend to be 1,000 different people. Every instance is the essentially the same weights trained on essentially the same data. The difference in perspective doesn't resemble that of the difference between any two humans.
Humans love to think of multi agent systems as being like a team of people. It's much more like a writer imagining different characters and how they would respond. When George RR Martin imagines all 500 characters in Game of Thrones, there is a lot of diversity of perspective and thought there. But all of that is coming from one intelligence and doesn't represent a collaboration in any traditional sense.
