SAGE: A Quantitative Evaluation of Socialized Evolution in Agent Ecosystems
The paper introduces SAGE, a framework for evaluating socialized evolution in agent ecosystems. It compares two conditions: agents evolving with peer history and those relying solely on self-improvement. Findings indicate that while peer history can enhance performance, its benefits are context-dependent and vary by agent and arena.
- ▪SAGE evaluates agents in two conditions: SocialEvo with peer history and SelfEvo with only self-history.
- ▪The study finds that agents can achieve breakthroughs with peer experience when they plateau under self-improvement.
- ▪Social gains from peer history depend on the ability to abstract knowledge rather than just the volume of exposure.

Yet agents increasingly operate alongside peers whose strategies and outcomes are publicly visible.
