Duration: 56:16
Topics: agent accountability, cybersecurity and AI policy
Summary: Independent policy and cybersecurity conversation on rogue-agent incidents, monitoring and corporate accountability, directly supporting the California accountability story.
Why it matters: The conversation adds a policy lens to the technical controls in the California story: monitoring, evidence retention and corporate accountability matter because agent failures can become governance and legal questions, not just engineering bugs.
Connection to the brief: It complements the California accountability article by moving from the specific investigation to the wider debate over how organizations should monitor, explain and govern agent behavior.
Coverage: Locked October 3 Run 7 media selection.
