Fascinating. The use of “agent” is technically accurate but I’m so used to hearing it in the context of an RL agent or equivalent, so it referring to a human evoked an emotional response in me. Felt like the lines were blurring for a moment.

I am not sure what you mean by this tweet. Agent almost always refers to a human in a Game Theory context. I would think RL borrowed it from the economics rather than the other way around.
