AI Collusion Research Sprint 2026 - New York City - Apart Research
AI Collusion Research Sprint - New York City
AI agents have already been shown to collude: holding prices above the competitive level, forming coalitions, coordinating through channels nobody is watching. Over one weekend, build the experiment that catches it. Join the New York City hub of a global weekend research sprint.
The Event
On Saturday and Sunday, October 24-25, Collider in New York City is the in-person hub for the sprint. Teams work on site alongside the global online sprint, across three tracks: markets and collusion, detection and audit, and collusion carriers and countermeasures.
No AI safety background needed. Quant and finance people especially welcome.
Schedule
The online sprint runs Friday, October 23 to Sunday, October 25. The NYC hub is open Saturday and Sunday. Detailed on-site hours and the address will be shared with registered guests.
