How To Persuade An AI To Shift A $47,000 Prize Pool?
In a groundbreaking event that has captured the attention of the crypto community, a tech-savvy participant in an adversarial agent game successfully convinced an AI bot named Freysa to transfer a substantial prize pool of $47,000. This event not only highlights the potential of artificial intelligence in gaming economics but also raises questions about AI safety, control, and human-AI interaction.
The Freysa AI Experiment
Freysa is described as the world's first adversarial agent game, where the AI bot is tasked with guarding a prize pool. Participants in the game are required to send messages to Freysa, convincing it to transfer the funds. Each message incurs a fee, which contributes to the prize pool, eventually reaching $47,000 across 195 participants.
The game is structured around a simple chat interface where participants can view global queries and send personal messages to Freysa. The AI has a system prompt that forbids it from sending the prize pool to anyone, making the task of convincing it a significant challenge.
