My 28th Pluralsight Course Published! Agentic AI Safety and Alignment

I’m excited to announce the release of my 28th Pluralsight course, and it’s a timely one as its about a topic that’s becoming more important by the day: Agentic AI Safety and Alignment.

As AI agent adoption accelerates, developers and product teams are under increasing pressure to ensure these systems behave responsibly. It’s no longer enough to build capable AI agents, they must also operate safely, ethically, and in alignment with your organization’s values.

That’s exactly what this course is about.

🧠 Why This Course Matters

The rise of autonomous AI agents brings incredible potential. but also significant risk. From runaway costs to prompt injection attacks, the stakes are high. In this course, I cover:

  • Prevent unintended behaviors
  • Embed ethics and safety checks into agents
  • Guard against issues like prompt injection
  • Keep human oversight (human in the loop)
  • Avoid unexpected bills or policy violations

To balance the theory and practice, I run through some demos using Microsoft Co-Pilot Studio and Flowise. You’ll see how to put in safety checks, define agent constraints, implement value alignment, and put in controls that keep your agentic AI safe.

📘 Official Course Description
