> Major U.S. banks detect unauthorized third-party AI agents inside customer accounts

Step 2 is instead of waiting to be caught, the instigators should issue a press release blaming cunning rogue agents as part of their research, call no felonies because they’re working for the greater good of eliminating a shitload of jobs, say the real problem is a lack of regulation. They could even return the money if it looks like they’re going to get sued, and collect some sweet, sweet reflexive investment money.

Corporate Personhood in the agentic age.

This is most likely actual customers deliberately giving their agents access.

Which is an interesting problem, what happens when the agent fucks up and the customer loses lots of money? Who is responsible?

If the official policy is "no agents", it shifts the blame.
