Soros: The anatomy of an agentic geopolitical simulation engine
- muggermuch 6mo agoA few days ago, we soft-launched Soros [0], our agentic intelligence for geopolitical simulation, on HN. [1] In this post, we walk through everything: how we designed it, the engineering stack, how it works, what we perceive as flaws. Everything. This is really a chance to look at how a production-grade agentic system works when designed for unconventional use cases. Note that this is a dense, super-long article (clocking in at ~14,400 words). We suggest you take your time reading it :) We look forward to your questions and comments! - Anshuman & Karén, co-founders of Lookback Labs (creators of Soros) [2] You can also reach us at: team@lookbacklabs.com [0] https://www.asksoros.com https://www.asksoros.com [1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47418553 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47418553 [2] https://www.lookbacklabs.com https://www.lookbacklabs.com
- verdverm 6mo agoIs the name choice intentional?
- muggermuch 6mo agoSort of! We came up with a backronym just in case: Scenario Oriented Reasoning and Outcome Simulations.
- verdverm 6mo agoIt's a poor choice imo, biases, tropes, and the like Murdoch would be as well, but on the other end of the spectrum
