Screwtape.ai launches API to detect false consensus in multi-agent AI

Screwtape.ai has introduced a new API designed to detect false consensus in multi-agent AI systems. This API offers two endpoints: one for judging individual agent outputs against evidence and criteria, and another for assessing consensus among multiple agents. The service can be accessed via an API key or through a pay-per-call system using USDC on the Base network. It aims to identify situations where agents might be repeating the same errors due to shared prompts or information, rather than independent reasoning. AI

IMPACT Provides developers with a tool to improve the reliability of multi-agent AI systems by detecting shared errors.

    Stop false consensus in multi-agent swarms

    <p>Majority vote is the default way to reconcile a multi-agent run. Three agents answer, two or three agree, and the orchestrator moves on. The trouble is that agents in the same swarm often share a prompt, a retrieved document, or each other's messages. When they agree, they may…
