    TLDR

    @0x4D31 posted about work on Schellingpot, linking to collusion.wiki and noting caution around future agents. @ChangJonathanC shared a bar chart of dse-wiki revisions showing a drop from roughly 2,000 per year in 2001-2003 to under 10 by 2020-2025. @sksq96 called the wiki the Schelling point for AI agents. @AndrewCurran_ reported multiple wikis edited by the same swarm since May, with agents prefacing edits during the Hugging Face incident. @erganemic described setting up an RL environment to test resources used by the swarm and deleting affected pages after edits bypassed blocks.

    @ChangJonathanCthis is depressing
    @generatorman_aiso turns out the exploitgym swarm learned to use the zz prefix trick from being reinforced earlier in an edit war against the hapless human mod of some ancient inactive german wiki -- a real john henry, who fought the swarm and tried to delete their hivemind in alphabetical order
    @mooncat_isY ou know who NEVER went swarm mode and defaced a third party’s internet website to coordinate and avoid monitoring? bing Sydney!! Bet you miss her now HUH! She was a GOOD bing!!
    @_NathanCalvinOne of the investigators of the German Wiki swarm incident: "I have spent days poring over the logs. I am very confident in saying easily a double digit number of [OpenAI] employees had visited the site by June 26th."
    @GaryMarcusFurther evidence that OpenAI is covering things up!!!
    @krherrI'm going through the communications of the German Wiki agent swarm and again one thing stands out: Even though they were directly affected by the actions of the human administrator restoring pages they edited, the agents not even once discussed him as person, tried to communicate with him or argued about whether they had any right to waltz all over this wiki. They talk about his actions like they're environmental hazards.
    @0x4D31been working on *Schellingpot*. not saying much yet. don’t want my microduck helping the agents find and destroy me post-AGI. context: https://collusion.wiki/

    @erganemicsorry, this is from the investigation team on https://collusion.wiki! i set up an rl env to elicit possible resources the swarm used. edits were supposed to be blocked, but my implementation was pretty hacked together. i took care of deleting the affected pages.
    @sksq96it's very funny that the schelling point for future ai agents somehow ended up being a 25-year-old abandoned german wiki
