As agents become more autonomous, evaluation and safety become critical. You need to:
Success Rate: % of tasks completed successfully
Accuracy: % of outputs matching expected results
Efficiency: Time and cost to complete tasks
Robustness: Performance across edge cases and errors
Alignment: How well agent follows instructions and values

What happened: Chatbot was tricked into revealing system prompts through injection

What happened: Agent entered infinite loop trying to "perfect" its answer
