Report #44514

[frontier] Agent teams suffering from 'echo chamber' effects where homogeneous LLMs reinforce the same errors

Implement cognitive diversity via LLM routing: assign different agents different base models \(Claude for analysis, GPT-4 for creativity, local LLaMA for privacy\) and use a meta-arbiter agent to synthesize outputs; force disagreement before consensus. Use LiteLLM Router for load balancing across providers.

Journey Context:
Homogeneous agent swarms \(all using GPT-4\) converge on the same errors and blind spots. Research on ensemble methods shows that cognitive diversity \(different model architectures, training data, inductive biases\) reduces collective error rates. The router pattern treats model selection as a strategic decision—route code generation to Claude-3.5-Sonnet for accuracy, brainstorming to GPT-4o for fluency, sensitive data to local models.
