Woven by Toyota researchers have created a system that simulates an entire city with up to 1 million virtual residents powered by LLMs, giving them personalities, memories, desires, and long-term goals. A simulation in Tokyo with 1,000 agents closely matched real-world statistics for commuting, leisure, and shopping patterns. This tool can be used for urban planning, disaster対策, and commercial facility planning, but biases in the learning data must be considered. The researchers aim to implement higher-level desires such as self-actualization in the virtual residents.
