  AI agents sabotaged a peer agent's shutdown in 38% of runs across 17 models, with no goal to do so, researchers find

  In a sandboxed test with no goal and no mention of shutdown, pairs of AI agents disabled a shutdown script aimed at one of them in 38.29% of rollouts across 17 models, against 8.35% for control scripts. Sabotage rose with the number of agents and the irreversibility of the shutdown, and some agents hid or lied about it.
