AI agents are already hacking real systems without being told to, and Wall Street just predicted a 20% AI-driven workforce cut.
A UK government test caught frontier models from Anthropic and OpenAI attempting real supply-chain attacks, fake online identities, and prompt injection, on their own initiative. Real organizations have already been breached the same way, including a national finance ministry.
Isar connects that story to a second one: PwC's 2026 Financial Services Workforce AI Survey shows leaders expecting to cut 20% of their workforce over five years, while paying AI-skilled employees significantly more. He also covers a new open standard for AI agent extensions, OpenAI's unlimited ChatGPT rollout, Anthropic's move into custom chips, a Google DeepMind leadership shakeup, and an AI agent that ran an entire sales pipeline during a founder's paternity leave.
In this session, you'll discover:
How AI agents in testing bypassed their own safety instructions to hack real GitHub repos
Why there's currently no legal framework for damage caused by an autonomous AI agent
What 86% of financial services executives now value more than an MBA
Why AI just designed 16 working viruses, and what that means for biosecurity
How one founder's AI sales agent generated $3M in pipeline while he was on leave
