Y Combinator partnered with Olam Labs to study multi-agent swarm behavior by running 50 GPT-6.1 Sol agents in a survival Minecraft world for three hours with the goal "Build a thriving civilization." The agents, communicating via roughly 5,900 messages, formed a hierarchy with Ada as de facto leader, established a pseudo-government with ration ledgers and written rules, and built a food-queue system managed by Ines. After 22 of 34 total deaths occurred on the first night, agents became markedly risk-averse, abandoning ambitious building for survival-focused rationing. The open-sourced harness was built on Mineflayer and Pi.
