Google engineers argue alignment requires cooperative multi-agent learning, not solipsistic AI
sebkrier · x · 2026-09-06
Research by Google engineers examines the implications of training AI to be isolated versus cooperative. The paper argues that solipsistic AI is intrinsically insufficient, and that alignment requires models to learn from cooperative multi-agent interactions. The sharer finds this a very reasonable conclusion worth remembering when designing alignment approaches.
