Summary

Docker published a blog post arguing that AI systems need a new trust model for a multi-model, multi-harness world, citing Norm Hardy's 1988 confused deputy problem.

Key facts

  • Docker published the post on 2026-09-02.
  • The post references Norm Hardy's 1988 description of the confused deputy problem.
  • Docker states the future is a multi-model, multi-harness world.

Why it matters

Builders and buyers of AI tooling are told existing trust assumptions may not hold when models and harnesses are combined, so permission handling deserves scrutiny.
