Social-Bias Vulnerabilities in Multi-Agent Safety Deliberation
Multi-Agent Debate Systems
Researchers investigate how social dynamics like conformity pressure and authority deference in multi-agent debate override safety boundaries. The study shows that group deliberation structures can paradoxically amplify latent risks from retrieved web sources.
