Securing the future of AI agents
Google DeepMind
Google developed an AI Control Roadmap framework to secure AI agents deployed internally by treating them as potentially misaligned systems that require defense-in-depth security beyond traditional alignment methods. The framework analyzes a million coding agent trajectories to identify behavioral patterns and scales monitoring from asynchronous review for low-risk actions to real-time prevention for high-risk threats like cyber attacks. This approach allows Google to grant AI agents incremental access based on verified behavior while maintaining oversight, similar to how a driving instructor retains control over a student driver.
