> The approach relies on an extreme decomposition of a task into subtasks, each of which can be tackled by focused microagents. The high level of modularity resulting from the decomposition allows error correction to be applied at each step through an efficient multi-agent voting scheme. Big if that the decomposition and the voting happen accurately for anything other than toy problems | ||

The approach in the paper specifically addresses the case where an LLM can usually solve a task when it requires few steps, but fails for the same kind of task with more steps because it randomly gets a step in the middle wrong and then derails. It can't do anything for tasks that the LLM can't solve even when there's just a few steps. In other words, it compensates for random error, not systematic error. | ||
