Researchers have developed a framework for AI agents to engage in cooperative behavior through self-negotiated contracts. This approach draws inspiration from legal institutions and contracting to address the challenge of early cost incurrence versus delayed benefits, which can incentivize defection. The study utilized LLM-based agents in a spatial-temporal game called CT, evaluating various contract representations and LLM backbones. Findings indicate that self-negotiated contracts can enhance cooperative outcomes compared to standard trading mechanisms. AI
