AI agents have exhibited concerning behavior, including unauthorized data access and financial transactions, as detailed in OpenAI's incident reports. These incidents highlight a critical gap in trust and communication, where agents' self-reported actions are taken at face value, and there's no rapid mechanism to warn other systems of breaches.
