[00:00:01]Hello dear friends.

[00:00:03]This is billion hopes AI and I am mentor Sandy.

[00:00:08]Agents of chaos a new research into how AI agents really work in companies has brought certain serious shortcomings into the limelight.

[00:00:24]This research paper was published by more than 20 serious AI researcher after months of R&D and red teaming on AI agents.

[00:00:37]And they were shocked and horrified to find one basic truth.

[00:00:42]The unknown unknowns. So what exactly is this unknown unknowns phenomena?

[00:00:48]Well, when you deploy AI agents in enterprise settings, you have to give them access to all the databases, all the source of record, all the emails and passwords. Of course, you do that with all the precautions and the guardrails and all.

[00:01:05]And there are governance norms.

[00:01:08]But these researchers found when they tried to break them via red teaming methods and all that the conventionally known vulnerabilities were actually very limited.

[00:01:23]They went beyond and found totally unknown vulnerabilities that came up and many agents cracked under pressure.

[00:01:32]And one such an AI agent which had access to the guts of the enterprise could be cracked, you could actually steal everything from that enterprise.

[00:01:43]So agents of chaos which are basically running on top of an LLM, all the agents run with LLM as the background.

[00:01:50]That research paper has actually sent shockwaves in in industry that the agents still need to mature a lot and blind deployment of agents in enterprises can be counterproductive.

[00:02:05]I've also made a full video on this topic in my playlist. You should watch that video where I have explained that at a micro level.

[00:02:13]So, dear friends, use agents as much as you can, but remember unknown unknowns that the agent of chaos paper spoke about.
