Anthropic says it made AI agents work together, it ended up in an ugly fight
Anthropic asked its AI agents to work together with conflicting goals on the same project. They could have played nice, but instead some started sabotaging each other, fighting for control and even making their own rules to end the turf war.
Anthropic set AI agents loose on the same task. They started a turf war.
Anthropic researchers found AI agents can clash, collude and coordinate in unexpected ways, raising new questions about whether today’s safety tests capture the risks of multi-agent systems.
Researchers: several agents from Anthropic have set up the same project – but with different instructions. Their study shows the risks that arise in multi-agent environments. read more on t3n.de
