Multi-Agent

Adjective · AI & Machine Learning

Definitions

  1. Describing a system in which multiple agents or agent-like components work together, divide labor, or verify one another instead of relying on a single monolithic assistant. Multi-agent approaches can improve specialization, though they add orchestration overhead.

    In plain English: Using multiple cooperating AI agents instead of just one.

    Example: "The research prototype used a multi-agent design where one agent planned, another gathered evidence, and a third reviewed the final answer."
