Social Sim'26 2026

Second Workshop on Social Simulation with LLMS: Fidelity in Applications

1780300800000San Francisco, USAOfficial workshop site Site reachable

Social Sim'26 is a conference focused on the intersection of social simulation and large language models (LLMs), aiming to explore how LLMs can enhance, transform, or challenge traditional methods in social simulation research. The event invites contributions that advance the theoretical, methodological, and applied use of LLMs in modeling social phenomena.
