Biocomplexity refers to the study of biological, social, informational and technological agents, their interactions and the ecologies they form and evolve. These agents can be living agents but importantly can include artificial agents such as the ones created by today's AI systems. These agent ecologies are complex systems and reasoning about them is complicated and scientifically challenging due to their size, co-evolutionary nature and multiple scales and types of interactions simultaneously. Examples include: human immune system, human brain, The 2019 COVID-19 pandemic, 2009 financial crisis, global migration, information propagation over social media, agentic AI and climate change. Advances in computing have fundamentally altered how such bio-social complex systems can be synthesized, analyzed and reasoned.
