Moltbook, Agent Collectives, and the AI Risk Matrix
The emergence of Moltbook offer an early glimpse into AI agents operating collectively at scale. These systems demonstrate how interaction between autonomous agents can give rise to emergent behaviors that are not attributable to any single model or prompt, complicating traditional, model-level approaches to AI safety. Viewed through the AI Risk Matrix, such agent collectives point to a distinct and underdeveloped category of system-level risk with implications for evaluation, red teaming, and governance.

MoReBench: Evaluating the Process of AI Moral Reasoning
MoReBench is a large-scale benchmark for evaluating AI moral reasoning beyond final outcomes. Instead of scoring answers alone, it assesses the intermediate reasoning traces models produce when navigating 1,000 morally ambiguous, real-world scenarios. Our findings show that moral reasoning is a distinct and underdeveloped capability, largely uncorrelated with performance on traditional math and coding benchmarks.

The Agentic Era: Building the Foundation for Autonomous Mission Assurance
Agentic AI marks a shift from reactive chatbots to autonomous mission partners. Government must adopt unified Agentic Infrastructure—combining resilient agent execution and governed AgentOps—to enable machine-speed decisions. Platforms like Scale’s SGP and Agentex deliver interoperable, durable, and accountable autonomy for mission assurance.

Open-Sourcing MCP-Atlas: A Benchmark for Real Tool Use
We’re open-sourcing MCP-Atlas, including the dataset, evaluation environment, and updated results for a benchmark designed to measure how reliably AI agents use real tools. MCP-Atlas evaluates realistic, multi-step workflows that run against real Model Context Protocol servers, exposing where agents succeed—and where they still fail—when tool discovery, parameterization, and execution must work together.
