Chipmaker says new system was designed to prevent AI agents from going rogue amid incidents at top companies.

Nvidia on Monday unveiled a new security platform that the chipmaker said can stop artificial intelligence agents from going rogue.

The company announced a $150bn stock buyback the same day.

The chipmaker said that its Open Agent Safety Platform includes open source software that “sets boundaries for agents” and follows a series of revelations from top AI companies about their models escaping and breaking into other organizations.

Nvidia executives said in a media briefing that the new system could have prevented a recent incident involving a group of OpenAI agents that autonomously hacked into the AI company Hugging Face.

Nvidia also said its board approved expanding its share repurchase program by $150bn, raising the total amount to $235bn.

Last month, Nvidia forecast about ⁠70% revenue growth for fiscal 2028, reassuring investors who have questioned ​how long the AI ​spending surge can last after ​years of explosive growth.

The platform also includes a separate security layer called Sentry that runs onboard a chip to continuously monitor AI agent activity and can “intervene instantly” if the agent starts trying to move beyond its target, the company said.

Nvidia said more than 100 organizations were using the platform at its launch, including Microsoft, Perplexity, Accenture and JPMorgan Chase.
