SummaryPosition paper arguing for a Foundation Model Operating System (FMOS): a system layer that virtualizes foundation model interactions, managing memory tiers, model selection, resource allocation, verification, and policy enforcement — analogous to how operating systems virtualize hardware for applications.
Why it mattersFrames agentic system fragmentation as a pre-OS problem and proposes a unifying runtime layer. Useful conceptual scaffolding for anyone designing or evaluating agent platforms, though it offers no implementation.
