LLM agents simulate A/B tests using data-driven personas

Researchers have developed a novel framework for simulating A/B tests using large language model (LLM) agents. These agents are conditioned on data-driven personas derived from real user behavioral signals, moving beyond synthetic or rule-based approaches. The system frames A/B test simulation as a structured question task and has demonstrated directional accuracy of 0.75-0.90 on a benchmark of 40 A/B tests, offering a path toward faster and more cost-effective experiment pre-screening. AI

IMPACT This research could significantly reduce the time and cost associated with product development by enabling faster, data-driven experimentation.

    Data-Driven Persona-Conditioned Agents for A/B Test Simulation

    arXiv:2609.01038v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A/B testing is the gold standard for evaluating product changes, but each experiment requires real user traffic, engineering effort, and weeks of measurement. We propose a simulation framework that predicts A/B test outcomes using L…
