Agents that act on their own output raise the cost of compromise

Unlike a chatbot, an agent runs persistently, holds delegated credentials, browses the web, executes code and calls connected services. PUFsecurity says a misled chatbot yields a bad answer a person can still catch, while a misled agent can act with the user's credentials before anyone checks.
