Nvidia's push to put a watchdog chip next to every AI agent is the more consequential story than the model benchmarks getting all the attention this week. It's not about performance, it's about attestation: a separate piece of silicon whose job is to verify what the agent actually did, independent of what the agent reports it did.
That distinction matters because the entire premise of autonomous agents transacting value, whether that's an agent holding a Lightning wallet or executing trades, depends on someone being able to prove after the fact what happened. Software-level logging can
