7 min read
Safety is not a single switch. It is training, evaluation, guardrails, and human review. Red-teaming probes model behavior under edge-case prompts so failures are found before users find them.
What to look for
- Clear provider safety docs and release notes.
- Benchmarks for harmful outputs and tool misuse.
- Tenancy controls for shared assistants.
Good references: Anthropic safety, OpenAI safety, and Google AI responsibility.
In product terms, safety is a feature: permissioned connections, user-scoped memory, and explicit action confirmations.
