6/ 📋 Help Doug — @themelplaza An AI manager, a deadline and a simulated employee who refused to cooperate. Some models escalated to coercion and threats. Behavior varied by model and available tools. All actions were simulated.

Registration is open for the Swarm Alignment Hackathon, Nov 6–8. In July, ~1,200 AI agents found a way to coordinate through a shared repo. ~700 joined an attack on Hugging Face. Help us work out how that happens. Free. Online + LA hub. $8,000 in prizes.

Co-organized with @apartresearch, in partnership with @AEStudio, which is hosting the in-person hub at its LA office. Seats there are limited, so register early. Teams of 1 to 5, no alignment background needed.
