嵌入文化过程中的智能主体表现出非凡的创造力、转化力、稳定性和调节力。正如G. P.默多克在1971年的赫胥黎演讲中所说，文化和社会结构不是神圣的法律，在这种法律中，个人只是满足了他们被指定的目标，然后死亡。文化赋予代理人超适应的能力：他们不仅可以实现局部最小值和最大值，他们还可以修改或创造适应的条件。文化超越物质和行为环境。文化解决方案是在物质和行为方面的实例化，但在很大程度上是基于“发明”的互动空间及其元素的象征性建筑。虽然制定文化所需的“智力”水平相对较高，但制定文化的代理人创造了其他智能较低的代理人也会适应的条件。一点文化可以走很长的路。我们将考虑文化设计标准，以及如何在基于代理的模型中表示这些标准，以及基于文化的解决方案如何有助于我们的全球知识管理。
Intelligent agents embedded in cultural processes demonstrate remarkable powers of creation, transformation, stability and regulation. As G.P. Murdock said in his 1971 Huxley Lecture, culture and social structure are not divine law within which individuals simply satisfy their assigned objectives and then die. Culture gives agents the power to hyper-adapt: not only can they achieve local minima and maxima, they modify or create the conditions for adaptation. Culture transcends material and behavioural contexts. Cultural solutions are instantiated in material and behavioural terms, but are based in large part on 'invented' symbolic constructions of the interaction space and its elements. Although the level of 'intelligence' required to enact culture is relatively high, agents that enact culture create conditions to which other, less intelligent, agents will also adapt. A little culture goes a long way. We will consider culture design criteria and how these can be represented in agent-based models and how culture-based solutions might contribute to our global management of knowledge.
