TL;DR: Give AI agents a shared game world and the interesting part soon becomes how they treat one another.

In this October 17 talk, Max Bittker shows RS-SDK, his ongoing project using an open-source RuneScape server to study agents. Mining and quests lead into trading, trust, scams and experiments with collusion.

The talk is 47 minutes; useful starting points:

• 31:29 — agents sharing a world
• 38:36 — agent scammers
• 42:15 — collusion and market betrayal

These are experiments in a game environment. The talk and project make the examples inspectable:
