| description | In a world where the interconnection and interaction between human and artificial agents are continuously increasing, the dynamics of social bonds and dependence networks play a fundamental role. The core of our investigation revolves around the intricate interplay between dependence and trust within a hybrid society, populated by human and artificial agents. By means of a structural theory, this study offers valuable insights into the utilization of dependence networks and their impact on collaborative dynamics and resource management. Most notably, agents that leverage dependence, even at the cost of interacting with low-trustworthiness partners, achieve superior performance in resource-constrained environments. On the other hand, in contexts where the use of dependence is limited, the role of trust is emphasized. These findings underscore the significance of dependence networks and their practical implications in real-world contexts, offering useful practical implications in areas such as robotics, resource management, and collaboration among human and artificial agents. |
