For more than a year, they worked on a protocol. Trusted monitoring is tested on their benchmark setting, with all agent actions, as well as with suspiciousness-based defer-to-trusted triggers, thresholds from the red-teaming policy, and human escalation in higher risks. In simulation, the safety/usefu...
