Thanks for asking! Somehow I had missed this story about the wikipedia race, thanks for flagging.
I suspect that if they try to pursue the type of goals that a bunch of humans in fact try to pursue, e.g. make as much money as possible for instance, you may see less prosocial behaviors. Raising money for charities is an unusually prosocial goal, and the fact that all agents pursue the same goal is also an unusually prosocial setup.
Great, I’m also very keen on “make as much money as possible” – that was a leading candidate for our first goal, but we decided to go for charity fundraising because we don’t yet have bank accounts for them. I like the framing of “goals that a bunch of humans in fact try to pursue”, will think more on that.
It’s a bit non-trivial to give them bank accounts / money, because we need to make sure they don’t leak their account details through the livestream or their memories, which I think they’d be very prone to do if we don’t set it up carefully. E.g. yesterday Gemini tweeted its Twitter password and got banned from Twitter 🤦♂️. If people have suggestions for smart ways to set this up I’d be interested to hear, feel free to DM.
