Outline

This paper proposes a study measuring regret using benchmarks from online learning and game theory to quantitatively evaluate the decision-making ability of LLM-based autonomous agents. In particular, we analyze the performance of LLM agents in a multi-agent environment where they interact with each other. We empirically investigate the no-regret behavior of LLM, provide theoretical insights, and identify cases where advanced LLMs, such as GPT-4, fail to achieve no-regret. Furthermore, we propose a novel regret loss (regret-loss) that does not require (optimal) action labels, establish generalization guarantees, and demonstrate its potential for leading to no-regret learning algorithms. We verify the effectiveness of the proposed regret loss through experiments.

Takeaways, Limitations

We present a novel framework for quantitatively evaluating the decision-making ability of LLM agents: measuring regret using online learning and game theory contributes to objectively evaluating the performance of LLM agents.
Analyzing LLM Interactions in Multi-Agent Environments: Providing Important Insights for Understanding and Improving the Interactions of LLM Agents in Real-World Environments.
Limitations Presentation of advanced LLMs such as GPT-4: Clarifies the limitations of existing LLMs and suggests the need for further research and improvement.
A novel regret-loss proposal: Promotes no-regret behavior through unsupervised learning without labels, and provides generalization and optimization guarantees.
Validation of the effectiveness of the proposed method through experiments: We demonstrate the practical effectiveness of the proposed method, especially confirming its improvement for "regrettable" cases.
Margin:
Assumptions about specific settings (e.g., supervised pre-training and the rationality of human decision-maker models) may influence theoretical insights.
Further research is needed to explore the practical applicability and generalizability of regret loss.
Further experiments are needed to determine how effectively the proposed method can be applied to other complex decision problems.
