智能体社会需要“社会性 harness”：arXiv 论文提出分层架构应对通信失效
Agentic Societies Need a Social Harness
AI 导读
arXiv 论文指出，由 AI 智能体组成的“智能体社会”中，即便诚实能干的智能体在现有 harness 和消息原语下也常无法达成满意结果，故障或恶意智能体更能利用通信漏洞完全阻断进展、影响结果并追求有害目标。

Abstract:An agentic society is a collection of AI agents that coordinate autonomously across trust boundaries on behalf of different principals. We show experimentally that in such societies even honest, competent agents often fail to reach satisfactory outcomes when using current harnesses and messaging primitives; and faulty or malicious agents can completely stall progress, influence outcomes, and pursue harmful goals by exploiting communication vulnerabilities. We argue that agentic societies need a \emph{social harness}. Unlike a \emph{personal harness}, which manages private context and communication with the principal, a social harness manages interactions with other agents. We propose a layered architecture for social harnesses which (i) prevents classes of communication failures outright, (ii) enables agents to detect invalid messages, and (iii) supports post-facto investigation and consequences.
