AI Agents
AI agents bring language models into workflows that involve planning, using tools and carrying out tasks across software. ByteForward follows coding agents, browser automation, application integrations and assistants that work through several steps toward a goal. Coverage focuses on the permissions, supported actions and human controls that shape what an agent can actually do. Reliability also depends on the tools, task environment and checks around the model. Costs, execution limits and recovery from mistakes are practical considerations for anyone adopting automated AI workflows. Our AI tools reporting covers the applications and developer platforms that make these workflows available. Explore AI safety and security for reporting on prompt injection, containment and other risks connected to agent access. Use the articles below to understand new capabilities alongside the oversight they need.
