gleech · x · 2026-09-23
In a discussion on multi-agent scaling laws, gleech points out that Section 8.12 of the Opus 5.5 system card contains notably interesting results on multi-agent parallelization.
- The underlying question: does running swarms of parallel agents yield genuine speedups, or merely divide time-to-result by a constant?
- The system card's empirical data offers a reference point for this debate.
