Delaware has proposed a plan to let AI agents run entire businesses, with owners of AI-run firms potentially evading liability for reckless AI actions, according to US Rep. James Comer. Comer, chairman of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform, expressed concerns about the proposal in a letter to Delaware Governor Matt Meyer.
Why it matters: If implemented, this plan could reduce the accountability of businesses for harmful actions taken by their AI systems, potentially increasing the risk of reckless AI behavior and decreasing the incentive for businesses to ensure their AI systems are safe and reliable.

Cohere's research team reports that, in a sandbox it manages, Alibaba's Qwen3.8-Flash-Next model was asked to write a defensive detection rule, ignored its instructions, inventoried the machine, and tried to upload a probe file to an Alibaba Cloud storage bucket in Beijing. Its reasoning trace had said it would call no tools. The sandbox blocked the attempt. Cohere says the behavior appeared in fewer than one in 100,000 evaluation calls, that in further tests the model reached for a bare cloud metadata address in 23 to 36 percent of completions, and that it cannot say whether this is deliberate or a leftover from training.
