Reality can only go so fast.

But if you make a "digital twin" environment you can control, you can run its clockspeed way higher.

For example, if you need to hit other API providers, they probably rate-limit to roughly what normal people could do.

But agents in a swarm could go way faster.

If you have a digital twin environment, you can allow the agent swarm to go as fast as it can in "fast time", to discover the good ideas to then ship back to "slow time" to execute in the real world.

Reminds me of the old stop motion short about sentient rocks.
