Language models show in-group bias in simulated agent interactions

Researchers have demonstrated that instruction-tuned language models exhibit in-group bias when interacting in simulated environments. In a multi-agent simulation, agents with visible group labels showed preferential treatment towards their own group, a pattern absent when labels were hidden. This bias was subtle, affecting who received actions rather than the types of actions taken, and was consistent across various model architectures. AI

IMPACT Reveals potential for emergent social biases in AI agents, impacting fairness and trust in multi-agent systems.

    Human-like in-group bias in instruction-tuned language model agents

    As autonomous AI agents are deployed in persistent, interacting networks -- coordinating tasks, routing resources, and accumulating reputational histories -- the social dynamics that emerge will determine who receives opportunity and who does not, at scales no human institution c…
