Stanford University has developed a new security framework for AI systems used across research, teaching, healthcare and administration, with a particular focus on a growing challenge for institutions: AI that can do things, not simply generate answers. The Stanford AI Security Framework (AISF) assesses systems according to factors including data sensitivity, autonomy, access to tools...Read More
It’s tempting to read the Hugging Face story as the moment AI agents went rogue. That isn’t quite what happened, and the details matter.
