Aligned Agents, Biased Swarm: Measuring Bias Amplification in Multi-Agent Systems

arXiv CS.AI

ArXi:2604.08963v1 Announce Type: cross While Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) are increasingly deployed for complex workflows, their emergent properties-particularly the accumulation of bias-remain poorly understood. Because real-world MAS are too complex to analyze entirely, evaluating their ethical robustness requires first isolating their foundational mechanics. In this work, we conduct a baseline empirical study investigating how basic MAS topologies and feedback loops influence prejudice.
