He also talks about how important it is to be able to see what data bots can access, what choices they make, and why. Chang says that the main goal is to "protect the context," not just the code. He says it's also a matter of governance and verification because even legal automation can be risky if it's not managed, verified, or governed. APIs, which Chang calls the "connective tissue" that connects all of these systems, are now an important part of understanding this larger attack surface.

He says they need to be built into the system instead of being added on later.
