It communicates among agents within the system to collaboratively solve tasks, under the premise of shared information. However, when agents' collaborations are leveraged to perform multi-person tasks, a new challenge arisesduetoinformation asymmetry,sinceeachagentcanonlyaccess theinformationofitshumanuser.

However,such assumption does not always hold inreality. Itisoften the case that arm pulls are performed by multiple different agents whose individual goals are not aligned with the system, and the principal can only observeagents' actions. One typical example is the individual buyers (agents) and the online shopping platform (the principal).

Our main observation is that the gap between λnt and the accumulated reward of agent n, which we call the QoS regret, behaves like a queue.

Valve's Steam Machine: Everything we know The Crypto.com guy bought AI.com (and a Super Bowl ad) Kris Marszalek's new website will let users create their own AI agents. In this case it's AI.com, valued at one point at $100 million, which will serve as the online home for his new company of the same name. The website launch is being paired with a Super Bowl ad that will air this Sunday. AI.com's main offering is an AI agent that operates on the user's behalf -- organizing work, sending messages, executing actions across apps, building projects, and more. It's a similar concept to what companies like OpenAI, Anthropic and Google are promising with their own agents and agentic features, and notably lacking in hard details.

The viral social network for bots reveals as much about our own current mania for AI as it does about the future of agents. For a few days this week the hottest new hangout on the internet was a vibe-coded Reddit clone called Moltbook, which billed itself as a social network for bots. As the website's tagline puts it: "Where AI agents share, discuss, and upvote. Launched on January 28 by Matt Schlicht, a US tech entrepreneur, Moltbook went viral in a matter of hours. Schlicht's idea was to make a place where instances of a free open-source LLM-powered agent known as OpenClaw (formerly known as ClawdBot, then Moltbot), released in November by the Australian software engineer Peter Steinberger, could come together and do whatever they wanted. More than 1.7 million agents now have accounts. Between them they have published more than 250,000 posts and left more than 8.5 million comments (according to Moltbook). Those numbers are climbing by the minute. Moltbook soon filled up with ...

This week, we dive into the wild world of Moltbook and the OpenClaw personal AI assistant. If you haven't heard, there's now a social network for AI: Moltbook, a site that purportedly features AI agents talking to each other. That includes OpenClaw, a personal AI agent (formerly called Clawdbot and Moltbot) that's open source and free for anyone to run on their systems. In this episode, Devindra and Senior Reporter Karissa Bell discuss the rise of these services, and the potential future that AI agents may have for all of us.
