Imagine a population of machine agents. Each might be strong on certain tasks but fundamentally limited: partial tools, partial observations, finite context, bounded compute. How can these agents self-orchestrate and self-evolve into stronger collective intelligence to solve tasks beyond any single agent's capability? Instead of designing the multi-agent system itself, we propose designing the incentives that govern it. We put agents in an economy. They compete, trade, get wealthy, go bankrupt, and mutate, forming an alive society where coordination and adaptation automatically emerge in a decentralized manner.
