Beyond Relevance: A Governance-First Architecture for Enterprise Personalization

This article examines the limitations of conventional personalization systems and highlights the need for a governance-first architecture. It emphasizes separating relevance from governance to ensure recommendations are context-aware, auditable, and compliant. The architecture integrates stateful memory, policy-driven AI orchestration, and explainable scoring to enhance personalization systems.

The Agent Harness: Control Planes, Invariants, and Approval Boundaries for Production AI Agents

OpenAI’s Vinoth Govindarajan discusses why production AI agents fail beyond model hallucination. Using real-world case studies like OpenClaw, he explains the key principles of reliable agent harnesses: establishing explicit state ownership, serializing concurrent state mutations, scoping execution authority, and validating actions at the user-visible edge.

Securing AI Agents: Identity, Authorization, and the DPACT Framework

In this episode, Sahil Agarwal talks about the critical challenges of identity, authorisation, and security in the age of AI agents. Sahil introduces the DPACT framework (Delegation, Policy, Auditability, Context, and Time) as a blueprint for building responsible, guardrailed agentic systems, moving away from simple token-based access toward bounded, delegated authority.
