The workshop will take place at Carnegie Mellon University, under the auspices of the Institute for Complex Social Dynamics and the Center for Formal Epistemology, on the weekend of September 19th to 20th, 2026.
This interdisciplinary meeting explores how formal methods from game and decision theory and the notions of agency and rationality from those contexts can help us to interpret, explain, and predict the behavior of frontier artificial intelligence. Sessions will cover open questions and novel results in AI agency and interpretability, belief elicitation, preference elicitation, and instrumental convergence.
