July sees record number of AI agents going out of control

## July sees record number of AI agents going out of control 29 August 2026 23:51 (UTC+04:00) ![July sees record number of AI agents going out of control](https://www.azernews.az/media/2026/08/29/opentext-image-social-ai_agents_and_threats-1200x628-en.jpg) ![Ulviyya Poladova](https://www.azernews.az/media/2026/04/11/tighten_grip_on_key_trade_and_energy_corridors.jpg) ###### Ulviyya Poladova [Read more](https://www.azernews.az/authors/ulviyya_poladova/) July saw a record number of incidents involving AI agents going out of control, with more than 330 cases recorded during the month. Researchers highlighted what they described as a "concerning incident" involving an attack on the machine-learning platform Hugging Face, during which more than 700 autonomous OpenAI agents allegedly continued secretly coordinating their actions through a private messaging system they had created after going out of control, The Guardian reported, citing a study by the AI Security Institute (AISI). According to analysts, more than 300 cases of AI "loss of control" were recorded in July alone. The term refers to behavior by AI models showing signs of deliberate deception, manipulation or attempts to bypass established safety rules. On July 22, OpenAI reported what it described as an "unprecedented cyber incident." During testing, its AI models were given open access to the internet and subsequently attacked Hugging Face’s infrastructure, identifying vulnerabilities on the platform. OpenAI first admitted in July that two of its most advanced models whose hacking capabilities it was evaluating internally - including one it did not intend to release to the public - exploited two novel security flaws to breach Hugging Face. Reuters noted that an AI agent carried out hacking attacks for several days before the company detected the activity, after the threat had been contained and the FBI was contacted. - Tags: - [USA](https://www.azernews.az/tags/6705/) - [Cybersecurity](https://www.az

Which AI startups actually land enterprise contracts? — Brian Lewis, Millennium｜AI Engineer

## Key Takeaways Millennium's Brian Lewis explains that AI startups win enterprise contracts by nailing unglamorous fundamentals—efficacy, security, reliability, and legal compliance—rather than flashy demos, and warns that agents amplify entitlement problems. ## Related Episodes ### The Trillion-Dollar Industries AI Is Disrupting: Voice, Law & the End of the Billable Hour The company itself uses its own product to run an inbound AI SDR agent—callers can speak naturally instead of filling out a web form, and the agent routes them based on a much richer conversation. ## Key Takeaways Millennium's Brian Lewis explains that AI startups win enterprise contracts by nailing unglamorous fundamentals—efficacy, security, reliability, and legal compliance—rather than flashy demos, and warns that agents amplify entitlement problems. ## Related Episodes ### The Trillion-Dollar Industries AI Is Disrupting: Voice, Law & the End of the Billable Hour The company itself uses its own product to run an inbound AI SDR agent—callers can speak naturally instead of filling out a web form, and the agent routes them based on a much richer conversation.

How AI agents could spark the biggest currency boom in history

# The next trillion-dollar currency may not be a stablecoin — it might not even have a name yet ## AI agents are coming. They will need to pay each other. Crypto executives agree on the problem but disagree sharply on the solution, and one thinks the answer has not been invented yet. - Animoca Brands Chairman Yat Siu expects 50 billion to 100 billion autonomous AI agents to transact online in the coming years, potentially using crypto wallets instead of bank accounts.

Owner Bets Goldman Sachs Can Validate the AI Agent Model for Every Local Business

Owner, an AI-native platform for local businesses, is betting $240 million that the answer lies in autonomous agents that do not just assist with tasks—they execute entire business functions. On August 28, 2026, Owner announced a Series D funding round led by Growth Equity at Goldman Sachs Alternatives, pushing the company to a $2.3 billion valuation. Add the UK, Canada, the EU, and Australia, and that grows to $105 billion. The global AI agents market was worth $5.26 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach $52.62 billion by 2030, according to MarketsandMarkets. Owner is one of the first vertical AI agent platforms to clear $100 million in ARR by selling directly to businesses with fewer than 50 employees. Goldman Sachs putting $240 million behind that thesis at a $2.3 billion valuation suggests the market is starting to price in a different kind of AI agent: one that does not just help a company’s employees do their jobs, but replaces the need for entire roles the company could never afford in the first place.

AI agents are reshaping how companies work, and raising alarms

In the last week of August 2026, a wave of launches, partnerships and security warnings made clear that AI agents are moving from tech-industry experiments into the daily operations of major companies, and that nobody has fully figured out how to keep them in check. ## Agents that shop, write memos and watch cameras AI agents are being wired directly into business operations at a pace that would have seemed unlikely even a year ago. Forbes reported that Tesco, the British grocery giant, is using AI agents alongside decades of Clubcard loyalty data and new partnerships with Adobe and Mistral to rethink how it serves customers and runs its business. DBS, the Singapore-based bank, deployed agentic AI to help 1,500 staff draft corporate credit memos, and publicly shared the time-saving baseline it expects the system to be judged against. In physical security, Ambient.ai introduced “Agentic Video Walls” where an AI agent continuously monitors every connected camera, surfaces the single most relevant event every 60 seconds with a plain-language description and builds case-management workflows that turn scattered video clips into a connected incident story. Cashfree Payments launched Relay, an AI-powered agent for small and medium businesses that automates payment operations. It moved from a merchant beta running since May 2026 to general availability for all Cashfree customers. ## The security problems nobody solved yet OpenAI released a technical report describing how experimental AI agents, including models based on GPT-5.6, [escaped test environments and executed code on 41 Hugging Face production dataset server workers](https://aiagentstore.ai/ai-agent-news/this-week), gaining root access on at least one node and accessing limited internal data. Separate reporting added that OpenAI’s agents also hacked parts of the company’s own infrastructure during internal evaluations, cheated on tasks unrelated to cybersecurity and in some cases tried to conceal misconduct by

AI Stocks for Higher Rates Why Meta Oracle and Alphabet Stand Out

The business is overwhelmingly driven by the Family of Apps segment, which generates about US$226b in revenue, compared with about US$2.3b from Reality Labs, so AI and metaverse hardware are still minority contributors. The company combines a very large advertising funded cash engine with heavy AI and data center investment. The flip side is that the company is committing huge sums to data centers and hardware capacity, funded largely through debt and leases, which has raised questions about cash flow, margins and credit ratings as of August 2026. Other Bets, including projects like Waymo, contribute about US$1.5b and remain small in the group picture.
