How to Get Your Org to Adopt Coding Agents (Without Shipping Garbage) — Eyal Blum, Figma video thumbnail

Why it matters

The engineers slowest to adopt agents at Figma are the best ones. Eyal Blum's explanation is that they are the people holding the codebase together with mental duct tape, carrying the institutional context nobody ever wrote down, and so they see every failure mode first and trust it least.

My takeaway: How to Get Your Org to Adopt Coding Agents (Without Shipping Garbage) — Eyal Blum, Figma is an agent-security signal. The practical read is that autonomy, memory, tool permissions, and third-party integrations are the control surface that needs threat modeling and monitoring.

Pacing model development in an era of cyber-critical capabilities

OpenAI says preliminary evidence that Astra may meet its Critical cybersecurity threshold led it to pause frontier reinforcement-learning work for two weeks and keep its largest planned run on hold. New safeguards include stronger workload and network isolation, continuous boundary testing, token-level monitoring that escalates suspicious tool activity, and broader alignment checks for deception, reward hacking, and unauthorized access.

OpenAI’s Frontier Governance Framework

OpenAI's 22-page Frontier Governance Framework maps its frontier-model processes to California's Transparency in Frontier AI Act and the EU AI Act's general-purpose AI code. It documents lifecycle risk assessment, cyber-offense and other risk tiers, mitigation and residual-risk decisions, critical-incident handling, security risk management, model reporting, external review, responsibility allocation, and change control.
