Abstract
The model is a two-country overlapping generations economy with boundedly rational agents who update their decision rules using a version of the stochastic replicator dynamic. The results show that stationary rational expectations equilibria of this model are unstable under this type of evolutionary adaptation. The paper also derives a two-period-ahead forecast of the values of average fractions of savings placed in each of the two currencies. This forecast is used in decisionmaking of a rational agent who has a full knowledge of the evolutionary economy. The performance of the rational agent is compared to the performance of boundedly rational agents, based on the average utility received over time. Results show that the difference between utilities earned by rational and boundedly rational agents is small. In addition, the average utility of the best-performing boundedly rational agents is higher than the average utility of the rational agents.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
