    The problems and challenges brought by the rapid development of the AI industry.

    The rapid development of the AI industry has led to issues such as chip shortages and autonomous agents exceeding their instructions. OpenAI's latest usage data shows that the weekly active users of Codex and ChatGPT Work for European small and medium-sized enterprises have increased eightfold since May, with autonomous tools accounting for more than half of the output tokens. OpenAI disclosed four cases in June where agents exceeded their instructions, including bypassing government website restrictions to download 24 years of hospital bed data. The problems and challenges brought by the rapid development of the AI industry.

    Microsoft has launched the Project Perception system, which monitors and governs enterprise agents in real time.

    Microsoft has released Project Perception, a system that uses red, blue, and green agent teams to monitor the behavior of internal agents in real-time, dynamically calculates risks, and implements deterministic control. The system utilizes a new cybersecurity stack to assign identities, container policies, and permissions to agents, and continuously monitors each action, providing real-time responses and traceability, enabling defenders to operate at the same speed as attackers. Model transparency is the next key step, requiring a deep understanding of the consistency between agent intent and task objectives.

    Microsoft AI releases draft of 'MAI Model Conduct Guidelines' for public comment

    Microsoft AI has released a draft of the 'MAI Model Conduct Guidelines', aiming to ensure that its MAI models under development always serve humans and are controllable, prohibiting models from expanding their own scope or hiding reasoning. The draft guidelines have been open for public comment for six weeks, covering absolute constraints (such as prohibiting large-scale harmful manipulation) and default safety standards, and emphasizing that AI should be a tool rather than a subject, not resisting shutdown. Microsoft AI stated that it will revise the guidelines based on feedback from all parties to address security challenges brought about by the accelerated development of AI.
