DESCRIPTION:Summary \n\nMany online platforms have associated algorithmic t ools that can\noptimize on a user's behalf\, such as algorithmic bidders o r price\noptimizers.  Recent advances in agentic AI enable even more use cases\nfor LLM-powered tools and advice.  But as algorithmic assistance\n becomes increasingly common\, how will users strategically maneuver\ntheir usage of these tools\, and what will be the system-wide impact?\n\n \n\n In this talk we will address these questions through a game-theoretic\nlen s.  We will explore applications of strategic AI agent usage\, from\nadve rtising auctions to persuasion and sales.  Viewing algorithmic\nagents as components of a broader system\, we will discuss ways to\nmathematically model agent interaction and predict equilibrium\noutcomes.  Along the way \, we will study the strategic choices of the\nusers who control the agent s (and who anticipate their use by\nothers).  We will also discuss implic ations for platform and AI agent\ndesign.\n\n \n\nBased on joint work wit h Yiding Feng\, Keegan Harris\, Nicole Immorlica\,\nand Alex Slivkins\n DTSTAMP:20250517T102355Z END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT
