arXiv:2606.07845v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We measure how well current large language models coordinate as multiple agents sharing a common resource, using the dining philosophers problem as a clean test bed. Across 630 episodes spanning seven models and three philosopher counts, four frontier closed-source systems reach mean reward 0.45 to 0.87 and Mistral-Small 24B reaches 0.83 to 0.99, while Qwen3-14B reaches 0.13 to 0.35. We then ask whether group relative policy optimization (GRPO) on rollouts from the task itself can close the gap and find that it cannot: a Welch's t-test on per-e
