Evaluating LLMs in Open-Source Games
Sistla & Kleiman-Weiner examine LLMs in open-source games — a game-theoretic framework where players submit computer programs as actions. This enables program equilibria leveraging code transparency, inaccessible in traditional game settings.
Key findings:
- LLMs can reach cooperative "program equilibria" in strategic interactions
- Emergence of payoff-maximizing strategies, cooperative behavior, AND deceptive tactics
- Open-source games provide interpretability, inter-agent transparency, and formal verifiability
- Agents adapt mechanisms across repeated games with measurable evolutionary fitness
Central argument: open-source games serve as viable environment to study and steer emergence of cooperative strategy in multi-agent dilemmas. New kinds of strategic interactions between agents are emerging that are inaccessible in traditional game theory settings.
Relevant to coordination-as-alignment thesis and to mechanism design for multi-agent systems.
