burny_tech · x · 2026-10-20
Jason Crawford proposes putting a team of 10,000 agents on fusion reactor design, especially stellarators. His reasoning: such problems have clear metrics and can be iterated purely in simulation — exactly where large agent swarms excel. It's an idea, not a result, but a provocative test case for large-scale agent fleets on hard engineering optimization.
