Finally. I've been saying that we need to stop focusing on a single agent getting everything right and instead layer agents for about 16 months now, but it's great to have a paper to point to.

It's interesting that the diminishing returns for tasks flatten out rapidly around the same size as the ideal human meeting sizes: https://www.researchgate.net/figure/18-Optimal-Meeting-Sizes...

If this was done at more granular steps of agent quantity I'm curious just how closely it would match those numbers.

I'd also really love to see the eventual follow-up where we see how much more performance can be obtained when the agents are each fine tuned towards slightly different aims. I'd expect there'd even be a performance lift from just having the agents each set at different temperature levels.

Very happy to see the research community starting to step in this direction!
