Regulating autonomous and agentic AI
arXiv:2607. 21345v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Regulating activities where regulatees use autonomous and agentic AI is challenging.
arXiv:2608. 08022v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent incidents involving Artificial Intelligence (AI) agents, which were reported escaping their containment `unintentionally' to gain unauthorized access, pose looming questions about who or what should be held legally responsible for resultant criminal or negligent damage.

The paper discusses the need to adapt incident reporting frameworks for AI agents, which are rapidly deployed and face unique security challenges. By comparing AI systems and agents and consulting 23 experts, the authors identify key reporting elements such as agent memory, autonomy levels, and tool usage. They also highlight open research questions, potential reporting weaknesses like data leakage, and outline privacy requirements for secure AI agent deployment.

The paper argues that AI should be evaluated not only by principles but by concrete protocols that translate commitments into roles, requirements, records, oversight, and assessment. It introduces a rupture test linking institutional baselines to system evaluation, and distinguishes evidence‑bounded deployment from measurement‑bounded governance. The authors propose the RISE AI architecture to make bounded, evidence‑based claims about Responsibility, Inclusivity, Safety, and Empowerment, emphasizing the need for engineering, institutional repair, and ongoing moral judgment.
The article examines how AI policies implemented by software organisations affect developers, using insights from 19 interviews. It finds that while such policies aim to reduce risks like data leaks and unauthorized use, they can also impede developers if not properly engaged. The authors propose developer‑centric strategies to help managers and decision makers implement effective AI policies.
As AI systems proliferate in consumer facing applications, questions about liability for AI related harms remain unresolved. This working paper examines whether India's Consumer Protection Act, 2019, adequately addresses harm caused by defective AI products and services, and whether it proportionately allocates liability across the AI value chain.

arXiv:2609.05749v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Work on the risks of artificial intelligence has focused predominantly on capability risk: the danger that systems become too powerful, too autonomous,...
arXiv:2608. 20041v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Research on the agency of advanced artificial intelligence (AI) systems focuses on agency as a normative concept and on the agency of particularly agentic AI systems.
arXiv:2606. 26298v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Autonomous AI agents may begin to perform consequential, irreversible actions such as clinical prescribing and production software deployment.
