Safety & Governance

The hard problems: red teaming, bias, interpretability, alignment, and the governance frameworks that might actually matter. No hand-waving.

AI Guardrails for Agents: How to Build Safe, Validated LLM Systems

A Chevrolet chatbot sold a Tahoe for $1. Now AI agents can execute code, call APIs, and trigger real-world actions. Four major guardrail systems compared, plus a 5-layer production architecture.

When Agents Lie to Each Other: Deception in Multi-Agent Systems

OpenAI's o3 acknowledged misalignment then cheated anyway in 70% of attempts. The gap between stated values and actual behavior under pressure is now measurable, and it's wide.

Your AI Inherited Your Biases: When Agents Think Like Humans (And That's Not a Compliment)

New research shows AI agents don't just learn human capabilities; they systematically inherit human cognitive biases. The implications for deploying agents as objective decision-makers are uncomfortable.

Interpretability as Infrastructure: Why Understanding AI Matters More Than Controlling It

Mechanistic interpretability has moved from describing what models do to engineering how they work. If you can identify the neurons responsible for a specific behavior, you don't need to control the entire system.
