Ross Taylor's team shared follow-up results on multi-agent organizations: budget-forcing a single agent to match an 8-agent org's token count closes about 3/5 of the performance gap but is far slower — organizations finish 4x faster on some held-out evals. The team stresses this is ongoing work with caveats and more ablations to come.
