Towards a science of scaling agent systems: When and why agent systems work

Google Research 6 months ago 47

Researchers evaluated 180 agent system configurations across multiple benchmarks and found that adding more agents does not universally improve performance, contrary to common industry practice. On parallelizable tasks like financial reasoning, centralized multi-agent systems improved performance by 80.9%, but on sequential tasks like planning, all multi-agent variants degraded performance by 39-70%. The study produced a predictive model with 87% accuracy in identifying optimal coordination strategies based on task properties like decomposability and tool count, enabling developers to make informed architectural choices rather than defaulting to agent proliferation.

Keeping your data safe when an AI agent clicks a link

OpenAI 6 months ago 17

OpenAI has implemented safeguards to protect user data when AI agents open links by preventing URL-based data exfiltration and prompt injection attacks. The company uses techniques including sandboxing, input validation, and output filtering, though OpenAI does not publicly disclose specific technical thresholds or benchmark metrics for these protections. These measures reduce the risk that malicious URLs could extract sensitive information from user sessions or manipulate agent behavior through crafted link contents.
