Towards Sustainable Investment Policies Informed by Opponent Shaping

ICLR 2026poster

Addressing climate change requires global coordination, yet rational economic actors often prioritize immediate gains over collective welfare, resulting in social dilemmas. InvestESG is a recently proposed multi-agent simulation that captures the dynamic interplay between investors and companies und…

Advantage Alignment Algorithms

ICLR 2025oral

Artificially intelligent agents are increasingly being integrated into human decision-making: from large language model (LLM) assistants to autonomous vehicles. These systems often optimize their individual objective, leading to conflicts, particularly in general-sum games where naive reinforcement…

Self-Play $Q$-Learners Can Provably Collude in the Iterated Prisoner's Dilemma

ICML 2025poster

A growing body of computational studies shows that simple machine learning agents converge to cooperative behaviors in social dilemmas, such as collusive price-setting in oligopoly markets, raising questions about what drives this outcome. In this work, we provide theoretical foundations for this ph…

LOQA: Learning with Opponent Q-Learning Awareness

ICLR 2024poster

In various real-world scenarios, interactions among agents often resemble the dynamics of general-sum games, where each agent strives to optimize its own utility. Despite the ubiquitous relevance of such settings, decentralized machine learning algorithms have struggled to find equilibria that maxim…
