i cant wait for the world to catch up to process, session, et al. calculii. the closest i’ve seen is all this “choreo” stuff that is floating around nowadays, which is pretty neat in itself.

Is it web scale?

You jest, but agents are of course already useful and fairly formal primitives. Distinct from actors, agents can have things like goals/strategies. There's a whole body of research on multi-agent systems that already exists and is even implemented in some model-checkers. It's surprising how little interest that creates in most LLM / AI / ML enthusiasts, who don't seem that motivated to use the prior art to propose / study / implement topologies and interaction protocols for the new wave of "agentic".
