The paper explores the ability of large language models (LLMs) to model the intelligence of decision-making agents, examining how well they can build a mental model of an agent’s behavior by reasoning about its actions and their effects. This research aims to leverage LLMs for elucidating RL agent behavior, addressing a key challenge in eXplainable reinforcement learning (XRL). The study proposes specific evaluation metrics and tests them on selected RL task datasets of varying complexity, reporting findings on agent mental model establishment.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
This paper looks at how well large language models can understand the decisions made by artificial agents. It wants to see if these models can build a mental picture of how an agent thinks and makes decisions. To do this, it uses evaluation metrics and tests the models on different tasks, like game-playing or puzzle-solving. The study finds that while LLMs are good at some things, they’re not yet able to fully understand how an agent thinks without more help.
