New papers attack the agent-safety gap with runtime firewalls and provenance tracing
Two arXiv preprints target multi-turn jailbreaks and misaligned tool calls, the failure modes that single-prompt filters miss.
Two preprints posted July 3 target the part of AI safety that runtime prompt filters handle poorly: attacks and failures that unfold across multiple turns or through an agent's actions rather than in a single message. The first, Cognitive F…

Oversight and Evaluation Lag Accelerating AI Capabilities
Over the next 3-6 months, evidence mounts that governance, evaluation, and agent-safety methods are failing to keep pace with capability growth, driving investment in interpretability, agent-manipulation benchmarks, and institutional-reform proposals.
