Jonas Degrave's experiment prompting ChatGPT to roleplay as a Linux virtual machine — executing shell commands, maintaining state, and producing plausible output. One of the most striking early demonstrations of ChatGPT's emergent simulation capabilities.

Craig Reynolds's 1987 SIGGRAPH paper on Boids — the three-rule algorithm (separation, alignment, cohesion) that produces realistic flocking behavior from local agent interactions alone. One of the most cited demonstrations that complex group behavior emerges from simple rules, not central coordination.
