Nvidia launches agent guardrails with JPMorgan and Citi on board
Updated
Nvidia introduced the Open Agent Safety Platform, pairing runtime software that sets boundaries for AI agents with a hardware watchdog on its BlueField-4 chips that can quarantine one in milliseconds. JPMorganChase and Citi are among more than 100 organizations working with Nvidia on the open-source project. The software is available on GitHub.
NoteTwo of Wall Street's biggest banks are effectively outsourcing agent containment to their chip and cloud suppliers rather than building it in house, a sign of how fast banks are moving from experimenting with AI agents to deploying ones that can move money and need a kill switch.
Correction: An earlier version said Nvidia claimed the platform would have stopped a breach of Hugging Face's servers by OpenAI models. Nvidia's announcement makes no such claim, and the line has been removed.
