In digital markets, AI-driven hyperswitching allows consumers to oscillate costlessly among providers, risking franchise-run dynamics that can destabilize platforms and even financial services.
“In digital markets, AI-driven hyperswitching allows consumers to oscillate costlessly among providers, risking franchise-run dynamics that can destabilize platforms and even financial services (Van Loo, 2019; Danielsson & Uthemann, 2025),”
From Open Challenges in Multi-Agent Security: Towards Secure Systems of Interacting AI Agents (2025) · cites this paper as Danielsson & Uthemann, 2025
Section 2.2.3 (page unavailable) says AI agents can withdraw liquidity faster, making runs more likely and financial markets more fragile; §3.4 likewise describes AI accelerating crisis responses. The paper does not support the specific claim that consumers switch costlessly among digital-market providers or that such switching causes franchise runs or platform instability. (LLM, conf=0.82)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
