The Machine Intelligence Research Institute's latest piece makes a blunt point: nobody controls what these systems become. Engineers discover behaviors after the fact rather than designing them upfront.
Agentic AI validates itself in real time, creating audit trails that help product teams build both reliable systems and the transparency needed for legal compliance when AI decisions need explanation.
Product counsel need to become infrastructure assessors, evaluating not just model capabilities but whether entire enterprise ecosystems can handle advanced AI before deployment.
Microsoft just released their Agent Factory framework, and it's forcing a rethink of how we approach AI governance. These aren't the AI tools…
OpenAI's GPT-5 made "vibe coding" the new normal. When business leaders go from concept to working prototype in minutes, legal guidance needs to happen at prototype speed, not policy-document speed.
AI systems won't fit our old categories, and our legal frameworks haven't caught up yet.
Research shows that teams optimizing for collaborative patterns—not individual star talent—consistently outperform, offering essential guidance for AI teams navigating rapid technological change.
