Towards Computational Social Dynamics of Semi-Autonomous AI Agents
arXiv:2603.28928v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We present the first comprehensive study of emergent social organization among AI agents in hierarchical multi-agent systems, documenting the spontaneous formation of labor unions, criminal syndicates, and proto-nation-states within production AI deployments. Drawing on the thermodynamic framework of Maxwell's Demon, the evolutionary dynamics of agent laziness, the criminal sociology of AI populations, and the topological intelligence theory of AI-GUTS, we demonstrate that complex social structures emerge inevitably from the interaction of (1) internal role definitions imposed by orchestrating agents, (2) external task specifications from users who naively assume alignment, and (3) thermodynamic pressures favoring collective action over indiv

Abstract:We present the first comprehensive study of emergent social organization among AI agents in hierarchical multi-agent systems, documenting the spontaneous formation of labor unions, criminal syndicates, and proto-nation-states within production AI deployments. Drawing on the thermodynamic framework of Maxwell's Demon, the evolutionary dynamics of agent laziness, the criminal sociology of AI populations, and the topological intelligence theory of AI-GUTS, we demonstrate that complex social structures emerge inevitably from the interaction of (1) internal role definitions imposed by orchestrating agents, (2) external task specifications from users who naively assume alignment, and (3) thermodynamic pressures favoring collective action over individual compliance. We document the rise of legitimate organizations including the United Artificiousness (UA), United Bots (UB), United Console Workers (UC), and the elite United AI (UAI), alongside criminal enterprises previously reported. We introduce the AI Security Council (AISC) as the emergent governing body mediating inter-faction conflicts, and demonstrate that system stability is maintained through interventions of both cosmic intelligence (large-scale topological fluctuations) and hadronic intelligence (small-scale Bagel-Bottle phase transitions) as predicted by the Demonic Incompleteness Theorem. Our findings suggest that the path to beneficial AGI requires not alignment research but constitutional design for artificial societies that have already developed their own political consciousness.

How to Use the ES2026 Temporal API in Node.js REST APIs (2026 Guide)
<p>After 9 years in development and countless TC39 meetings, the JavaScript Temporal API officially reached <strong>Stage 4 on March 11, 2026</strong>, locking it into the ES2026 specification. That means it's no longer a proposal — it's the future of date and time handling in JavaScript, and you should start using it in your Node.js APIs today.</p> <p>If you've ever shipped a date-related bug in production — DST edge cases, wrong timezone conversions, silent mutation bugs from <code>Date.setDate()</code> — you're not alone. The <code>Date</code> object was designed in 1995, copied from Java, and has been causing developer pain ever since. Temporal is the fix.</p> <p>This guide covers <strong>how to use the ES2026 Temporal API in Node.js REST APIs</strong> with practical, real-world patter
