Agentic AI’s OODA Loop Problem

  • The Source of the Problem The fundamental problem is that AI must compress reality into model-legible forms. In this setting, adversaries can exploit the compression. They don’t have to attack the territory; they can attack the map. Models lack local contextual knowledge. They process symbols, not meaning. A human sees a suspicious URL; an AI sees valid syntax. And that semantic gap becomes a security gap.

Tasks

SBIRs

  • 9:00 standup
  • Reviewed EL’s work, which missed a lot, and the slides were not terribly helpful. We’ll try again tomorrow
  • PySide6 – walk through the running QUI code. Seems to be nice and clean
  • Flailed around a lot at getting Qt Creator to work. Close, but not enough
  • Stripped out as much as I could to get a qml-template framework to use for starting projects
