AgentsThe story, in brief
The fix for rogue AI agents could be more AI
Agents moving faster than humans can audit them. The solution: deploy more agents to watch the watchers.
The KeyNews take
Why it matters
As agentic AI scales in production, human oversight becomes a bottleneck. The industry is turning to AI-based monitoring and control systems — a reliability engineering problem that will define whether agents become trustworthy enough for mission-critical work.
The key facts
4 to knowAgent oversight gap: agents operate at speeds and volumes humans cannot realistically monitor
