Simulating population compliance with pandemic interventions using large language models

2026-05-15

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Effective pandemic response requires accurate modeling of population compliance with non-pharmaceutical interventions (NPIs), yet most epidemic models treat behavioral change as fixed scenarios rather than an emergent process. Here, we test whether large language model (LLM)-based agents can generate individualized behavioral responses to time-varying NPIs and disease risk. We instantiate demogr...
