Network Effects Cause Unpredictable Behaviour Shifts in Multi-Agent AI Systems

4/5Sector: OtherGeography: GlobalStage: OperateIngested: —

Executive Summary

Small changes to individual agent properties or connections can trigger disproportionate, system-wide behavioural shifts in AI networks. Boards cannot assume incremental changes carry incremental risk, demanding network-level oversight frameworks.
