Cons
- -项目已于2025年8月宣布废弃，不再提供更新和支持
- -缺乏广泛的社区采用，生态系统相对有限
- -需要 OpenAI API 密钥才能使用 GPT 模型，可能产生额外成本
- -Experimental and early-stage library with frequent changes and incomplete functionality
- -Simulation quality depends entirely on the underlying LLM capabilities and may not capture all nuances of real human behavior
- -Requires LLM API access (likely GPT-4) which incurs ongoing costs for usage
