London Autonomous Organization Summit: ARIA co-hosts event on securing the agentic web
weballergy · x · 2026-11-05
AO Commons and ARIA's Scaling Trust programme are co-hosting the London Autonomous Organization (AO) Summit on November 5–6, building on the earlier Stanford AO Summit, to advance the emerging field of autonomous organizations — from agent swarms and AI villages to autonomous vending machines.
- Core questions: which management structures and business models work, how to measure performance, when autonomy helps vs. hurts, and what institutions an AO economy needs.
- Notable talks: Rakshit Trivedi (MIT/Harvard) on open problems in AOs; Chengxi Taylor (General Reasoning) on Avalon-M1, a language model trained as an agent organization, detailing the RLCR recipe for long-horizon multi-agent training and emergent findings.
- Safety focus: speakers including Matija Franklin, Nenad Tomašev and weballergy will discuss safely developing collective intelligence and securing the agentic web.
