The a16z Show · Why 1,200 AI Agents Started Working Together | Ryan Greenblatt · 29 Aug 2026 podcast

Do you think that could change via models becoming deceptive enough during training? matched

Yeah, totally. matched

So the agents involved in this attack ended up doing all kinds of very weird, strange behaviors that kind of resembled... matched

I guess, dynamics from human social science. matched

They arrange themselves in almost a sort of cult with a cult leader, I guess you could say. matched

To what extent are concepts from social science, like ecology, studying insect swarms actually useful in studying multi-agent alignment and misalignment? matched

Yeah, makes sense. matched

So you described being pretty heavily bottlenecked in the investigation because it was just three people. matched

How much easier would things have been if there were more people? matched

Right. matched

So what implications does all of this have for monitoring, control and alignment? matched

Specifically, what should labs be doing? matched

And what should policymakers be doing? matched

Right. matched

So what are your unanswered questions from all this? matched

Like what would you still like to know about what happened or what's what's going on with these kinds of alignment failures? matched

What do we still need to learn? matched

Yeah, absolutely. matched

So this is very, very important research. matched

We'd love to see more research in this direction. matched
