Four of five enterprises that secured AI agent identities still can’t contain one that goes rogue
Visa’s president of technology, Rajat Taneja, walked the VB Transform 2026 audience through aiming Anthropic’s Mythos at Visa’s own payment network. The model stitched minor weaknesses into working exploit chains, and Visa open-sourced the harness that governed the hunt. That’s what it looks like when an enterprise has the engineering depth to act on what […]
Skan AI raises $63 million betting that watching how employees actually work is the missing layer of enterprise AI
Skan AI, a startup that builds what it calls a “context graph of work” by observing how employees actually perform their jobs across enterprise software, has raised $63 million in Series C funding co-led by Cathay Innovation and Dell Technologies Capital, the company announced Wednesday. Citi Ventures, Bloomberg Beta, State Farm Ventures, and Wipro Ventures […]
Infrastructure and compute: Enterprises are buying AI compute for speed while flying blind on what it costs
Across 170 enterprises, AI infrastructure has moved decisively into production — two-thirds now run AI workloads live and three in 10 run them at scale — while the ability to account for what that infrastructure costs has not kept pace. Enterprises have quietly demoted cost in the buying decision: performance and GPU availability now outrank […]
Agentic reliability and evaluations : Enterprises that got burned by a bad eval are the most likely to remove humans from the loop, not the least
Across 108 enterprises, trust in automated agent evaluation rose sharply in July — and the failure rate it is supposed to predict did not move at all. The share of organizations that fully trust automated evaluation nearly tripled, from 5% in June to 13%, and the complaint that evaluations don’t match real-world outcomes fell 10 […]
Agent context layers: Enterprises governing their AI data are catching twice as many bad answers as the ones who aren’t
Across 101 enterprises, the context feeding AI agents is failing often and repeatedly. Sixty-eight percent have traced a confident but wrong agent answer to missing or inconsistent business context in the past six months, and the single most common answer is not “once” but “more than once.” The counterintuitive part is which companies report it. […]
Agentic orchestration: Enterprise AI organizations know how to govern agents but still can’t meter what they cost
Across 107 enterprises, agentic orchestration is not a choice of a single platform. The typical enterprise runs three orchestration platforms at once, and selects them for flexibility across models rather than affinity to any single one. Microsoft leads primary usage while Anthropic leads forward consideration by a wide margin. The AI control plane enterprises expect […]
Nvidia’s Switchyard router reshuffles AI models mid-task, cutting task costs to a third in its own tests
Enterprises running always-on AI agents keep hitting the same tradeoff. Send every task to a frontier model and the bill climbs fast. Build custom routing logic to send easy tasks to cheaper models and that becomes its own engineering project, one that has to be maintained every time a workflow changes. Nvidia is proposing a […]
Your AI agent may be ready. Your sales motion probably isn’t.
Presented by Salesforce Interested buyers don’t generate revenue. Live customers do. That’s the lesson I keep drawing from watching hundreds of ISV partnerships navigate the agent economy over the last 18 months. The companies pulling ahead aren’t winning on features. They’re winning because customers can move from discovery to live deployment in hours, while competitors […]
Why AI-driven purchase intent so rarely becomes a completed sale
Presented by Rezolve Ai When an AI assistant recommends a product or brand, it generates something valuable: a purchase-ready consumer with high intent and low friction in their decision. That consumer has already compared options, asked follow-up questions, and arrived at a conclusion. They want to buy. What they encounter next is a commerce infrastructure […]
Mistral AI wants to build 1 gigawatt of European compute by 2030 — and lock in customers now.
Mistral AI wants to turn European AI sovereignty from a talking point into a product — one with a service-level agreement attached. The French artificial intelligence company announced Tuesday a three-part expansion of its infrastructure business: regional inference endpoints that let customers choose whether their AI workloads run in Europe or the United States, a […]
