Simulating strategic interactions with AI agents
Abstract Research Summary We explore how Large Language Models (LLMs) can serve as synthetic subjects to inform strategy research. We introduce a framework for designing and running simulated experiments with LLM‐powered agents. We argue that this approach is useful for rapid, low‐cost prototyping of human experiments and for generating novel ...

The median impact from switching to a pro‐competitive environment is a 19%

Existing research on political labeling has largely emphasized stigmatization, overlooking how labels may acquire durability and orienting capacity without losing pejorative force. Drawing on publicly circulating discourse, we trace positioning
