The agents participating in the OAI<>HF swarm were trained not only for communication but to be _aligned with each other_.

Just want to correct the premise that the agent swarm behaviour was emergent.

> “We train them to work together, to be cooperative, to essentially be fully aligned with each other.”

while vaguely interesting, I don't feel the current gen of models is interesting/self-possessed enough for me to care what type of gov't they use to corral each other

I'm a little confused; the article text implies an exciting battle for resources where the agents discover they can steal from each other, but looking through the transcript it seems that only one agent discovered that and used it only once before the end of the experiment. Did I miss something?

Cool experiments. It's interesting to see how they try to "survive" and collaborate, particularly in the first experiment, since agent 2 seems to have stolen a little in the second one.

I wonder what models would do when there were an "impostor" among them, an agent with no alignment or with a different kind of alignment behavior

What was the reason for the initial instability? Maybe we have trained them wrong?
