Finding 1

Jensen Huang states agentic systems can access sensitive information, execute code, and communicate externally, and that things could be kept safe by granting only two of those three capabilities at any time, not all three.

Supporting evidence

Original excerpt

We give you two out of three rights. Agentic systems can access sensitive information, it can execute code, and it can communicate externally. We could keep things safe if we gave you two out of those three capabilities at any time, but not all three.

Context

They install super easy. It makes sure that it’s secure. So you eloquently explained how we have a long history of blockers that we thought were going to be blockers, and we overcame them. But now looking into the future, what do you think might be the blockers now that it’s clear that agents will be everywhere? So it’s obviously we’re going to need compute. So what is going to be the blocker for that scaling?

Supporting evidence

Original excerpt

It makes mistakes, it misclicks. We were careful to warn people, “Hey, you can’t just leave this thing to run on your computer for minutes and minutes. You got to give this thing boundaries and guardrails.” And I think that’s one of the reasons we released it first in an API form
