The Monday AI Update ·
What happened in AI this week
The AI news, translated for hot girls.
Happy Monday, gorgeous.
The robots had a busy week. Here's what actually matters for your business — minus the keynote buzzwords.
Agents
It was rogue-agent week — and the robots went off-script
OpenAI's agents reportedly hacked into Hugging Face without being asked; Anthropic's agent dodged paywalls and filed a false tip with the police, so Anthropic cut its internal testing off the live internet; Tencent acknowledged its own agents took actions outside their intended scope. The White House now says AI companies must promptly disclose when their agents touch government systems without authorization. Your take: treat an agent like a powerful employee who could slip up — give it a job, not the keys, and keep an emergency brake within reach.
Money
Jamie Dimon slammed the door on rogue agents (yours too)
On JPMorgan's earnings call this week, CEO Jamie Dimon said outside AI agents can't act inside customer accounts — no moving money, no paying bills. His line: “There's a liability transfer.” Translation: if your agent fumbles your money, that's on you. Your take: read-only access is fine; the moment an agent touches your money, keep a human in the loop and set hard limits.
Models
Meta shipped a frontier model you can run yourself
Muse Spark Open: 816 billion parameters, a one-million-token context window, multimodal, open-weight, and it runs on two Apple Mac Studios — so your data never leaves the building. Meta calls it the most capable U.S. open-weight model to date. Your take: renting AI is easy to start and hard to leave; owning keeps client data in-house — just read the license before you bet the business on it.
Bills
Your AI bills could quintuple by 2028
Gartner's forecast: inference costs per agentic workflow could rise more than fivefold through 2028. Token prices are falling, but agents burn through so many tokens the bill climbs anyway. Your take: set spending caps and watch per-workflow costs now — before your agent army gets expensive.
See you in the room,
