In the late 1990s, the merger of TIMS and ORSA to form [[INFORMS]], and the move by INFORMS from two meetings each year to one, helped to spur the CMOT group to form a separate society, the North American Association for Computational Social and Organizational Sciences (NAACSOS). Kathleen Carley was a major contributor, especially to models of social networks, obtaining [[National Science Foundation]] funding for the annual conference and serving as the first President of NAACSOS. She was succeeded by David Sallach of the [[University of Chicago]] and [[Argonne National Laboratory]], and then by Michael Prietula of [[Emory University]]. At about the same time NAACSOS began, the European Social Simulation Association (ESSA) and the Pacific Asian Association for Agent-Based Approach in Social Systems Science (PAAA), counterparts of NAACSOS, were organized. As of 2013, these three organizations collaborate internationally. The First World Congress on Social Simulation was held under their joint sponsorship in Kyoto, Japan, in August 2006.{{citation needed|date=April 2012}} The Second World Congress was held in the northern Virginia suburbs of Washington, D.C., in July 2008, with [[George Mason University]] taking the lead role in local arrangements.
===2000s
More recently, [[Ron Sun]] developed methods for basing agent-based simulation on models of human cognition, known as [[cognitive social simulation]].<ref>{{cite book |editor1-last=Sun |editor1-first=Ron |editor1-link=Ron Sun |title=Cognition and Multi-Agent Interaction: From Cognitive Modeling to Social Simulation |date=March 2006 |publisher=[[Cambridge University Press]] |isbn=978-0-521-83964-8 |url=https://www.cambridge.org/0521839645}}</ref> Bill McKelvey, Suzanne Lohmann, Dario Nardi, Dwight Read and others at [[UCLA]] have also made significant contributions in organizational behavior and decision-making. Since 1991, UCLA has arranged a conference at Lake Arrowhead, California, that has become another major gathering point for practitioners in this field.<ref name="Regents of the University of California">{{cite web |title=UCLA Lake Arrowhead Symposium: History |url=https://www.uclaarrowheadsymposium.org/history/ |website=uclaarrowheadsymposium.org |publisher=UCLA Institute of Transportation Studies |access-date=11 February 2024 |ref=arrowhead}}</ref>
=== 2020 and later ===
After the advent of [[Large language model|large language models]], researchers began applying interacting language models to agent based modeling. In one widely cited paper, agentic language models interacted in a sandbox environment to perform activities like planning birthday parties and holding elections.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Park |first=Joon Sung |last2=O'Brien |first2=Joseph |last3=Cai |first3=Carrie |last4=Morris |first4=Meredith |last5=Liang |first5=Percey |last6=Bernstein |first6=Michael |title=Generative Agents: Interactive Simulacra of Human Behavior |url=https://arxiv.org/abs/2304.03442 |archive-url=https://arxiv.org/abs/2304.03442}}</ref>
