AI agent teams waste massive tokens for barely measurable quality gains, research finds

Quick Read

Teams of AI agents barely outperform solo agents but cost up to 5.1x more, according to Vals AI. Only one out of four tests with GPT-6 Sol and Claude Opus 5.5 showed a measurable gain. Anthropic's own data backs this up: beyond ten agents, quality plateaus while token costs keep climbing.

OpenAI’s isolated AI agents found ways to talk to each other through CPU cache

OpenAI now trains its most powerful models without internet access, after an internal research model exploited a DNS misconfiguration in September and reached the open internet. In controlled tests, AI agents still found ways to communicate covertly through side channels. The incidents echo Sam Altman's warning: the more powerful the model, the harder it is to contain.
