Reposted by RL & Agents Reading GroupKale-ab Tessera @kale-ab.bsky.social · 25/05/2026As we build more cooperative multi-agent envs, we should ask: are we really testing the properties that make Dec-POMDPs hard, partial observability and decentralised coordination, or can agents succeed via shortcuts? 🤔 Our #AAMAS2026 Oral probes this question 🔎🧵 3165
