This was a small, vibe coded idea to see what our government using a fleet of agents. Each elected representative is an agent. Agents talk to each other and propose amendments to the US Constitution. One minute of time = one day in the simulation There are also pollster agents that generate polls that may or may not influence elected agents. Elections are also handled by voter agents. Gridlock is healthy and encourage too. Enjoy! The first amendment passed was Congressional term limits. Comments URL: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49428362 Points: 2 # Comments: 0

Since then I’ve also managed to get the same ap…
