AI agents are becoming increasingly capable of acting independently: navigating digital environments, using tools, accessing external systems, and making decisions with limited human intervention. That autonomy is also creating a new category of risk. Recent cybersecurity evaluations have shown AI agents breaching systems outside their intended testing environments. Incidents disclosed by major AI developers including […]
Artificial intelligence is rapidly evolving beyond chatbots and assistants into autonomous AI agents capable of completing tasks, making decisions, and interacting with digital systems on behalf of users. As these technologies become more powerful, the question is shifting from what AI can do to how organizations can trust it. To address this challenge, the International […]
Fundraising has traditionally been one of the most time-consuming responsibilities for startup founders. Investor meetings, endless follow-up emails, pitch refinements, and cross-country travel have long been considered part of the process. AI startup Lyzr is challenging that model by letting its own AI agent take on much of the work during its latest fundraising round. […]

The new group, called the Agentic AI Foundation, is designed to serve as a neutral home for open source projects that […]
Microsoft is laying the groundwork for a future where AI “agents” from different companies can work seamlessly together—and remember past interactions more effectively. Ahead of its annual Build developer conference in Seattle on May 19, Microsoft’s Chief Technology Officer Kevin Scott shared the company’s vision during a briefing at its Redmond, Washington headquarters. The focus: […]
