Market-based Post-Training: decentralized agent swarms learn self-orchestration via bidding, no central coordinator

An arXiv paper (2610.22322) by Guowei Xu, Zhenting Qi, Yilun Du et al. introduces Market-based Post-Training (MPT): agents bid for opportunities to act, and those bids determine who acts and how collective outcomes become individual learning credit. Action policies and self-orchestration are learned jointly without a central coordinator, letting individual capability and cooperation patterns evolve together — a step toward Society-of-Mind-style decentralized agent societies.
