Mr. Bond: It Takes an Agent to Test an Agent

Adam Sandman

13:45-14:30 CET, Thursday 5th November

Just like MI5 uses agents to test and find other agents that have gone rogue, when it comes to AI, we need to use the same approach. In this talk I will discuss the limitations of how we are current testing AI agents, and why this means we are not adequately ensuring the safety of agentic AI systems.

With non-deterministic systems like Generative/Agentic AI, we need to simulate a large number of inputs (millions) and measure the outputs using judge agents to find the statistical success rate. This a process that is more similar to how we traditionally do load testing rather than the simple functional testing we’re using with AI right now.

I will explain how you can instead use tools like AgentCore to create orchestration agents that build other types of agent to make this new type of non-deterministic testing possible. If you want to be ready for the next wave of QA, this talk is for you.
