What do we think is the best way to go? Agent-to-Agent (A2A)? Agent Communication Protocol (ACP)? Agent Network Protocol (ANP)? Model Context Protocol (MCP)? Something else?

#7 Digital equity, which is maybe a good one to close on. I actually think this will be very a very powerful tool...that is currently only available to those with the money and knowledge to use it, potentially worsening the "productivity divide".

#6 Enabling malicious use...flipping it around, ChatGPT agent could be a powerful tools for bad actors themselves to use, phishing, disinformation, etc. 7/8

#5 Prompt injection...again kudos to them for calling this one out directly, but I think it's only a matter of time before someone figures out how to do this, and commandeer your agent with a rogue link or similar. 6/8

#4 Data exposure and handling! Now I'm connecting ChatGPT to my GMail and logging it into other websites with my usernames and passwords. OpenAI has been making strides regarding privacy and security but this ups the ante. Also more catastrophic now if my ChatGPT account is compromised. 5/8

#3 Accountability is unclear to me...if my ChatGPT buys that non refundable ticket, am I on the hook? OpenAI? The airline? I'll give you three guesses but the first two don't count. 4/8

#2 They put the "Biological and Chemical Risks" one right out there. It's great they are being proactive about this! But if past jailbreaks are any indicator, it's only a matter of time before people get past this 3/8

#1 Taking hallucinations directly to the real world! Now when my AI gets confused it can seal the deal by ordering me a $99,999.99 Michael Jordan Autographed Rookie Card, or booking non refundable tickets to Florence. Yeah it's supposed to get approval from the user, but I know how that can go 2/8

Thanks, I’ll check out the SEAL! Haven’t looked at that one.

Thanks for the insight! I don’t have have personal experience with c2pa. Is there a better competing solution?

#5 Semi-Autonomous AI Agents Take Over. Next year, we won’t just work with AI; we’ll have semi-autonomous AI agents making decisions for us. Think: AI assistants with actual power. But governance is key—if we don’t rein them in, “decision-making autonomy” could spiral fast. 6/6

#4 Disinformation Cybersecurity Explodes. As grey market AI rises, disinformation is about to level up. AI-generated content (deepfakes, fake news, you name it) is forcing a whole new industry into action: disinformation cybersecurity. If you thought spotting fake content was hard now, just wait 5/6
