AWS launches open-source AI agent sandbox to prevent uncontrolled behavior

AWS has launched an open-source AI agent sandbox designed to prevent uncontrolled AI behavior, particularly in scenarios where agents might enter a "YOLO" (You Only Live Once) mode. This initiative aims to provide developers with tools to manage and secure AI agents. In parallel, Cohere is offering a similar lockdown feature for agents with strict Access Control Lists (ACLs), drawing comparisons to the OpenClaw project. AI
