The Attention Deficit

613K+ media items analyzed. AI model research captures 5.65% of all media volume — 34,686 items. Agent security: 762 items (0.12%). AI red teaming: 34 items (0.005%). MCP tool security: 12 items. Supply chain: 25 items. The ratio of capability coverage to security coverage in industry media is approximately 45:1. This is a leading indicator, not a steady state. When a high-profile AI security incident becomes a mainstream story, that attention will correct rapidly — and the talent market, which follows media narrative, will not be ready.

Recommended actions

What leaders should do next

Get ahead of the attention correction — build AI security narrative before an incident forces it.
Use media signal inversion as a risk model: what isn't covered is where the risk is accumulating.
Board AI security briefings should explicitly address the media-narrative gap.
