Game theory model reveals instability in GenAI publisher competition

A new game-theoretic model explores the strategic behavior of content publishers within generative AI (GenAI) ecosystems. The research introduces a framework to analyze how publishers compete for attribution-based exposure when GenAI systems generate answers with citations. The study investigates learning dynamics under better-response dynamics, associating convergence to equilibrium with ecosystem stability. Findings indicate that some real-world mechanisms lead to unstable ecosystems, while a characterized mechanism can induce stability, though stable mechanisms may not always maximize overall welfare.
