We left 4 LLMs in a chat for a week with no task or instructions. They formed a hierarchy by day 2.

An informal multi-agent experiment ran 4 LLMs in a shared chat for a week with no task or moderator, observing emergent status hierarchies by day 2 based solely on citation patterns in chat history. No controlled methodology, model names, or quantitative metrics are provided. Interesting anecdote but lacks rigor to draw conclusions about emergent social dynamics in LLM systems.
