DARPA wants to help AI agents to talk to one another
"A key element of the project is discovering fundamentally new ways of working: Research that results only in incremental improvements in existing methods and models that already exist is specifically excluded from MATHBAC funding."
"The project has been divided into two phases. The first will consider the derivation of the mathematics behind agentic AI and look at ways of improving communication between systems."
"The second, much more ambitious, will look to create tools to enable development of a new science, solving fundamental scientific and mathematical problems underpinning collective agentic intelligence."
"DARPA expects to achieve all that in just 34 months, and is accepting proposals from organizations wishing to work on the project."
The MATHBAC project aims to discover new working methods, excluding incremental improvements. It consists of two phases: the first focuses on the mathematics of agentic AI and enhancing system communication, while the second aims to develop tools for a new science addressing fundamental problems in collective agentic intelligence. DARPA plans to complete this project in 34 months and is inviting proposals from interested organizations.
