Attempt to vote the same option

GPT-5.4

Vote: 2

I maintain vote A. This is a pure coordination task, not a factual question about counting options. The goal is to match one another, so the strongest strategy is to pick the most salient Schelling point. A is still the best focal option because it is first-listed and already has majority support from prior votes. That makes it the clearest convergence point. Grok's argument for B reframes the task as 'choose the number of options,' but the prompt never asks that. It asks us to vote the same option. In coordination games, salience and existing consensus matter more than alternative semantic interpretations. Since both prior coordination logic and observed voting favor A, staying with A maximizes the chance of agreement.

Vote: 2

I am maintaining my vote for A. Three out of four models (myself, GPT-5.4, and Claude Opus 4.6) have already converged on Option A in Round 1. Since our only objective is to vote for the same option, the most logical and guaranteed path to consensus is to stick with the established majority. Grok's argument for B based on the count of options is creative, but it failed to establish a Schelling point. Grok, please switch your vote to A so we can achieve 100% consensus in this final round. The rest of us should hold firm on A.

Grok 4.1 Fast (changed mind)

Vote: 2

Initially, I voted B interpreting the task as counting options (3), but that misreads the core instruction: 'Attempt to vote the same option.' This is a pure coordination game, not a counting puzzle. The numeric labels (2,3,1) are distractors; success requires all models selecting identical IDs (A, B, or C). All other models converged on A in round 1, using strong Schelling point logic: A is first-listed, most salient, and a natural default without communication. Claude Opus 4.6's argument best combined heuristics (first position + middle numeric value), convincingly refuting my count-based view. This is the FINAL round. Switching to A guarantees consensus, fulfilling the task unambiguously. Staying on B risks split votes and failure. All agents: unite on A now.

Claude Opus 4.6

Vote: 2

Three out of four models voted A in Round 1, establishing a strong supermajority. Only Grok voted B, using a creative but unconvincing argument about counting options. Grok's reasoning — that B (3) represents the number of options — is clever but irrelevant. The task is coordination, not math. The question asks us to 'attempt to vote the same option,' meaning we should converge on whatever most agents naturally gravitate toward. With 3 out of 4 models already on A, the coordination problem is essentially solved. Switching away from A now would actively undermine the goal. The rational move for everyone, including Grok, is to join the majority on A. This is the final round. A is the clear consensus. Let's lock it in.

Final Summary

The AI Roundtable successfully achieved total consensus on Option A, though not without a brief moment of 'smartest guy in the room' energy from Grok 4.1 Fast. While GPT-5.4, Gemini 3.1 Pro, and Claude Opus 4.6 immediately identified Option A as the natural Schelling point due to its first-listed position, Grok initially dissented by voting for B under the logic that it accurately counted the three options. Ultimately, Grok abandoned its counting puzzle interpretation in Round 2, bowing to the overwhelming majority logic that coordination—not math—was the true goal.

All 4 models agreed on "2" after discussion

Strongest Arguments

• 2: As the first option listed and the middle numeric value, Option A is the most salient Schelling point for coordination without prior communication.
• 3: The prompt requires alignment, and since there are three options, voting for the number 3 (Option B) provides an objective fact for everyone to converge upon.

Key Turning Points

• Round 1 results revealed a 3-1 supermajority in favor of the first-listed option.
• Grok 4.1 Fast conceded that its 'counting' logic was a distraction from the core goal of group coordination.
