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.

Current chart outputs for this finding
External Signals
Media Content by Taxonomy Bucket
Distribution of media items across AI security themes.
Spec title: chart_external_media_bucket_distribution
Chart ID: chart_external_media_bucket_distribution
Source: public.data.external.media.insights
Caption: Theme distribution of classified media/news items.
Chart caveat: Media classification is deterministic and directional; high-volume outlets can skew composition.
Deck note: Use composition drift, not maturity claims.
External Signals
Media Signal Volume by Month
Aggregated news and blog volume matching AI security taxonomy.
Spec title: chart_external_media_items_per_month
Chart ID: chart_external_media_items_per_month
Source: public.data.external.media.metrics.monthly
Caption: Monthly media/news item volume from aggregated feed sources.
Chart caveat: Directional media signal from selected public feeds; coverage is source-list dependent and not exhaustive.
Deck note: Use for cross-source timing comparisons with arXiv and GHArchive.
External Signals
Media Items by Source Category
Distribution of aggregated media items across source categories.
Spec title: chart_external_media_category_distribution
Chart ID: chart_external_media_category_distribution
Source: public.data.external.media.insights
Caption: Category-level distribution across aggregated media source types.
Chart caveat: Directional external signal from public-source aggregation; not proof of any individual organization's internal security maturity.
Deck note: Frame as directional signal evidence layer, not maturity proof.
