Harvard researchers just found out the dark truth about how to simulate the entire world

A massive system has been built to replicate how humans react to products, apps, and websites, without needing humans at all.

Researchers at Harvard University and Massachusetts Institute of Technology say their network has the ability to simulate the world with “persona agents.”

‘The agents successfully expressed … their assigned traits 91.5% of the time.’

Based off a core set of just under 600,000 “human-grounded” personas, coupled with 400,000 synthetic records, the group at MatrAIx says they have found a way to simulate real reactions to questions, products, and more.

The approximately one million personas were used as the basis to create an AI bot population of 8.3 billion, which MatrAIx says can be run like a simulation and act as one giant focus group.

This allows companies to use
