A new artificial intelligence collaborator was developed using a large-scale simulation of human behaviors to improve how groups achieve common objectives. Humansand has released the Ampersand v0.1 model through an agent API for developers building collaborative applications, noting that users of the system outperformed those using Fable and other frontier models in tests conducted over several months.
The model was trained via interactions with Persimmon, a proprietary simulation tool that mirrors realistic human goals and behavior patterns. This training allows the AI to better understand interpersonal differences and behavioral evolution, according to documentation and a blog released by Humansand alongside the API.
