What if AI doctors could learn and improve just like human doctors—without ever stepping foot in a real hospital? In this episode of AI Paper Bites, Francis and Chloé dive into Agent Hospital, a groundbreaking AI simulation where autonomous agents play the roles of doctors, nurses, and patients.

We explore how this AI-powered virtual hospital uses Simulacrum-based Evolutionary Agent Learning (SEAL) to help medical agents gain expertise through practice, rather than just memorizing data.

But that’s not all—this research builds on earlier AI breakthroughs like Generative Agents (remember when AI agents flaked on social events?) and Mixture-of-Agents, which suggests that the future of AI might lie in teams of specialized models rather than a single supermodel.

Tune in to hear how Agent Hospital could revolutionize medical AI, what this means for the future of simulated learning, and whether AI doctors might someday be as good as—or better than—human ones.
