TeamFusion: Supporting Open-ended Teamwork with Multi-Agent Systems

摘要

In open-ended domains, teams must reconcile diverse viewpoints to produce strong deliverables. Answer aggregation approaches commonly used in closed domains are ill-suited to this setting, as they tend to suppress minority perspectives rather than resolve underlying disagreements. We present TeamFusion, a multi-agent system designed to support teamwork in open-ended domains by: 1. Instantiating a proxy agent for each team member conditioned on their expressed preferences; 2. Conducting a structured discussion to elicit agreements and disagreements; and 3. Synthesizing more consensus-oriented deliverables that feed into new iterations of discussion and synthesis. We evaluate TeamFusion on two teamwork tasks where team members can judge how well their individual views are represented in team decisions and how consensually good the final deliverables are, finding that it outperforms direct aggregation baselines across metrics, tasks, and team configurations.
