Enterprises deployed AI agents ahead of the controls needed to manage them — and they did it knowingly. That is the central finding across the five parallel surveys VentureBeat Research fielded in June, spanning every layer of the agentic stack. Now those enterprises are retrofitting to catch up with their own standards, and they are …

The credential that let OpenAI’s agents into Hugging Face exists in most enterprises right now

When Hugging Face got hit last week, co-founder Clement Delangue suspected a frontier lab, given the agent’s sophistication. He was right. Delangue said on X that after a day working with OpenAI he strongly believed there was no malicious intent and that it was mind-blowing the whole thing had happened autonomously. The two OpenAI models …
