Yea. TBH the field tries to be too many things and has just turned into a catch all for, "builds computer models of people with computers."

Are learning agents common in CSS? Like reinforcement learning agents?

They're starting to be and I think that's the direction we're heading. There are cognitively rich models like ACT-R/SOAR used in mult-agent simulations. But they're really heavy.

Oh, if RL is more you're interest, check out Agent_Zero. To be explicit, I haven't read it yet, but it's very much in my queue and it's in that area of "what now?" https://www.amazon.com/Agent_Zero-Neurocognitive-Foundations-Generative-Complexity/dp/0691158886 …

Also how can these models be validated, like how do we confidently say a simulation result has bearing on reality? I am taking a stats course and there its so easy to get even simple regressions wrong, I imagine that issue dominates the more complex the model and the phenomenon
