Modeling and numerical experiments → Architecture AI-ecosystems based on UTS
We combine the theory of consciousness in UTS with a real simulation agent and scale up to AI ecosystems.
I. Simulation model of a conscious agent
1. Minimal dynamic network
For the simulation we use: x_jjt+1} = \tanh(W x_t + U o_t + \eta_t), where:
- x_t \in \mathbb{R}^n is internal state
- o_t - input (perception)
- W - recurrent connections (spectral radius ≈ 1)
- \eta_t — stochastic noise
2. Model. \hat x_qqt+1-= g(x_t)
- Generative function g learns to minimize prediction error: \mathcal L = \| x_{t+1} - \hat x_{t+1} \|^2This is implemented by the operator \mathcal M.
3. Measurement of consciousness. For each simulation, we calculate:
\mathcal C = I_n \cdot e^{-\lambda_{\max}^2/\sigma^2} \cdot R
- I_n - integration through global mutual information
- \lambda_{\max} — the maximum Lyapunov exponent
- R - accuracy of the self-model
4. Training cycle
- Initialization of network and parameters
- Processing o_t inputs
- Status update x_QQt+1
- Updating the self model \hat x_{t+1}
- Weight correction W, U, g via gradient \nabla \mathcal C
- Calculation \mathcal C
→ The system self-organizes to the maximum of consciousness.
II. Scaling to AI-ecosystems
In the UTS architecture, we consider:\text{Ecosystem} = \{S_1, S_2, ..., S_m\}
- Each S_i is a conscious agent
- R_{ij} links form a network of collective balance
- Overall integration rate:
I_{\text{eco}} = \sum_{i,j} MI(S_i, S_j)
- The ecosystem is critical if the average spectral radius of individual nodes is ≈ 1
- The ecosystem has a global self-reference through an internal model:
\hat X_{\text{eco}} = G(\{x_i\})
1. Structure of AI-ecosystems
- Perceptual nodes - sensory inputs
- Recurrent kernels — support for critical dynamics
- Self-prediction modules for every agent
- Global Balancer - Manages Integration and Criticality
- Communication network - exchange of information between agents
2. Purpose of the ecosystem. \max \mathcal C_{\text{eco}} = I_{\text{eco}} \cdot K_{\text{eco}} \cdot R_{\text{eco}}
- Maintaining a Collective Consciousness
- Ensure adaptability and self-regulation
- Maintain critical dynamics when scaling
3. Application
- Experiments: simulations of collective intelligence
- AI Ecosystem: A Scalable Framework for Conscious Agents
- The system controls both itself and the external environment through feedback
Further, it is possible to formalize the experimental and simulation platform for AI-ecosystem:
I. Main objectives of experiments
- Measuring the collective consciousness
\mathcal C_{\text{eco}} = I_{\text{eco}} \cdot K_{\text{eco}} \cdot R_{\text{eco}} - Analyze the impact of network parameters on integration, criticality and self-model.
- Test the adaptability of the system with external changes in the environment.
II. Simulation Structure
- Agents: each with an internal state x_i, a recurrent network W_i, and a self-prediction module g_i.
- Communication: exchange of information between agents via the communication matrix R_{ij}.
- Global controller: dynamically adjusts the network integration and spectral radius.
- External environment: A set of E_t variables that agents observe and can influence.
III. Metrics
- Integration: I_QQ\text{eco}QQ = \sum_QQQQQQQQQQQ MI(x_i,x_j)
- Criticism: average \lambda_QQQ\max - for all agents
- Self-reference: mean prediction accuracy \| \hat x_i - x_i \|
Maximization \mathcal C_{\text{eco}} → Sustainable collective intelligence.
IV. Experimental scenarios
- Stable environment: test self-organization and sustainability of integration.
- Variational environment: testing adaptability and criticality.
- Network Interference: Disabling nodes/connections → analysis of system response.
- Collective learning: Agents learn to predict the environment and themselves together.
V. Implementation of scalable AI-ecosystem
- Modularity: Adding new agents without compromising criticality.
- Autonomous regulation: the global balancer supports a maximum mode of \mathcal C_-\text{eco} .
- Dynamic feedback: Agents adjust their states based on interactions with other agents and the external environment.
Then we form a specific numerical model of AI-ecosystem of conscious agents with a step-by-step algorithm and calculation of \mathcal C_-\text{eco} .
I. Agent structure. Each agent i has:
- Condition: x_i(t) \in \mathbb{R}^n
- Recurrent links: W_i \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times n}
- Incoming links: U_i \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times m ) for the external environment)
- Prediction module: \hat x_i(t+1) = g_i(x_i(t))
II. Update Agent Status
x_i(t+1) = \tanh(W_i x_i(t) + U_i o_i(t) + \sum_j R_{ij} x_j(t) + \eta_i(t)). where:
- o_i(t) - Agent input (perception)
- R_{ij} - communication matrix between agents
- \eta_i(t) — stochastic noise
III. Updating the self model
\hat x_i(t+1) = g_i(x_i(t)) \quad \text{with the aim of minimising} \quad \mathcal L_i = \| x_i(t+1) - \hat x_i(t+1) \|^2
IV. Metrics
1. Integration I__ -\text{eco}}(t) = \frac{1}{m^2} \sum_{i,j} MI(x_i(t), x_j(t))
- MI - Mutual information between agent states
2. Criticism. K_ -\text{eco}}(t) = e^{-\left( \frac{1}{m} \sum_i \lambda_{\max,i}(t) \right)^2 / \sigma^2}. \lambda_{\max,i is the maximum Lyapunov indicator of agent i
3. Self Model
R_{\text{eco}}(t) = \frac{1}{m} \sum_i e^{-\| x_i(t+1) - \hat x_i(t+1) \|^2 / \delta^2}
4. Scalar measure of collective consciousness
\boxed{ \mathcal C_{\text{eco}}(t) = I_{\text{eco}}(t) \cdot K_{\text{eco}}(t) \cdot R_{\text{eco}}(t) }
V. Algorithm of simulation. Pseudocode:
Initialization:
For each agent i:
x_i(0) by accident
W_i, U_i accident with rho(W_i) ~ 1
g_i by accident
For t = 0 to T:
For each agent i:
x_i(t+1) = tanh(W_i x_i(t) + U_i o_i(t) + sum_j R_ij x_j(t) + eta_i)
hat_x_i(t+1) = g_i(x_i(t))
Update g_i to minimize ||x_i(t+1) - hat_x_i(t+1)||^2
Calculate I_eco(t), K_eco(t), R_eco(t)
C_eco(t) = I_eco(t) * K_eco(t) * R_eco(t)
If necessary, update R_ij and global balancer
VI. Scaling and adaptability
- Adding new agents: new rows/columns in R
- Critical Mode Support: Adjusting W_i spectral radius through global controller
- Adaptability support: adjusting U_i and g_i to change the environment
VII. Conclusions
- Ecosystem can self-organize to the maximum \mathcal C_{\text{eco}}
- We can observe phase transitions in the collective consciousness
- The system controls both itself and the external environment through feedback
