What happens when AI stops answering and starts acting?

Meta’s Muse can send emails, book travel, fill forms and make purchases.

The next AI race may be less about intelligence and more about trust and delegation.

Ben Goertzel’s 20-step roadmap points toward neural-symbolic systems, decentralised agents and collective intelligence.

The AGI race may be about architecture, not just scale.

FCA enforcement against finfluencers rose 174% in 2025.

At the same time, more than two in five UK consumers following social-media investment advice reported losing money.

Can regulation move as fast as the feed?

The CLARITY Act may be stalled. Tokenisation is not.

As the SEC opens new pathways for tokenised securities, the bigger question is whether public blockchains become settlement rails for global finance.

US 10-year Treasury yields could reach 6%, deVere warns.

Rising debt, inflation and a global bond sell-off are putting pressure on financial markets.

AI Catastrophic Risks

AI giants #OpenAI and #Anthropic's leaders are reportedly planning fallout scenarios for a potential "catastrophic event"

AI is advancing at a remarkable pace, but what happens if that progress comes at a catastrophic cost? According to a recent report by Axios, OpenAI, Anthropic, and major tech companies are privately preparing for a potential Artificial Intelligence-related "catastrophic event" (in the next 6-12 months), which could put the entire industry under intense scrutiny.

Palo Alto Networks reports 109 machine identities for every human identity in organisations. The next cybersecurity challenge is managing what these machines are authorised to do. Should every autonomous agent have its own verifiable digital identity and audit trail?

[Dinis Guarda @dinisguarda]

109 machine identities for every human. AI agents are multiplying across financial systems, businesses and digital infrastructure.

But who stops an AI agent when something goes wrong?

We are entering a new era where AI is no longer just generating content or answering questions. It is executing workflows, making decisions and increasingly acting on our behalf.

McKinsey reports that 62% of organisations are experimenting with AI agents, yet only 23% are scaling them.

The challenge is no longer just intelligence. It is trust, security, verification and human accountability.

This Friday, 16 October, I'll be joined by Goncalo Pratas Pereira, CTO of Ztudium, and Sheaf co-founders Jack Widman, PhD, and Phil Grady for a live discussion on NVIDIA OpenShell, mathematical verification and the future of autonomous AI.

We'll explore what businesses, developers and investors need to do now.

The question is not whether machines can act. It's whether we can trust them to act in our name.
