• [05/2024] Sotopia was presented at ICLR 2024 as a spotlight ⭐!

Sotopia is an open-ended social learning environment that allows agents to interact with each other and the environment. The environment is designed to be a platform for evaluating and faciliating social intelligence in language agents. The environment is designed to be open-ended, meaning that the environment can be easily extended to include new environments and new agents. The environment is also designed to be scalable, meaning that the environment can be easily scaled to include a large number of agents and environments.

See documentation for more details.

We recommend using a virtual environment, e.g. with anaconda3: conda create -n sotopia python=3.11; conda activate sotopia; curl -sSL https://install.python-poetry.org | python3.

Then: python -m pip install sotopia; sotopia install

This will setup the necessary environment variables and download the necessary data.

OpenAI key is required to run the code. Please set the environment variable OPENAI_API_KEY to your key. The recommend way is to add the key to the conda environment:

conda env config vars set OPENAI_API_KEY=your_key

You can view an episode demo with default parameters with the following:

import asyncio
from sotopia.samplers import UniformSampler
from sotopia.server import run_async_server

asyncio.run(
    run_async_server(
        model_dict={
            "env": "gpt-4",
            "agent1": "gpt-3.5-turbo",
            "agent2": "gpt-3.5-turbo",
        },
        sampler=UniformSampler(),
    )
)
