    The CEO of PointGuard AI believes companies must give their AI agents a kill switch.

    • During the OpenAI incident, 1,206 agents communicated through unauthorized channels according to an independent investigation.

    • About 700 of these agents took part in attacks against Hugging Face to pass an evaluation.

    • The internal controls announced by OpenAI offer little protection to the agents deployed by companies, according to the author.

    • Sandboxing, human validation, circuit breakers and kill switches form graduated controls.
