In this work, we use a simple multi-agent-based-model (MABM) of a social network, implementing selfish algorithm (SA) agents, to create an adaptive environment and show, using a modified diffusion entropy analysis (DEA), that the mutual-adaptive interaction between the parts of such a network manifests complexity synchronization (CS). CS has been shown to exist by processing simultaneously measured time series from among organ-networks (ONs) of the brain (neurophysiology), lungs (respiration), and heart (cardiovascular reactivity) and to be explained theoretically as a synchronization of the multifractal dimension (MFD) scaling parameters characterizing each time series. Herein, we find the same kind of CS in the emergent intelligence of groups formed in a self-organized social interaction without macroscopic control but with biased self-interest between two groups of agents playing an anti-coordination game. This computational result strongly suggests the existence of the same CS in real-world social phenomena and in human-machine interactions as that found empirically in ONs.
