AI wearables promise more useful personal assistants, while the EvilTokens takedown exposes AI-assisted phishing and airport LiDAR raises practical questions about data and privacy. Meta's hardware announcements and Qualcomm's on-device AI strategy set up a discussion about where intelligence belongs, who gets access and how organizations earn trust.

The panel examines Microsoft's disruption of EvilTokens and its use of compromised inboxes to prepare fraud. It also explores Outsight's LiDAR-based airport analytics and the trade-offs involved in managing passenger flows without identifying individuals.

Panel: Jack Poller, Tracy Ragan, Jon Swartz and Jeff Reich. Topics: Mike Vizard. Production: Taylor Yaskulka.

Who controls an agent once it starts doing the work? Microsoft is extending Copilot into autonomous workplace tasks, while Docker and Nvidia offer different approaches to governing agent execution.

Alan Shimel, Mike Vizard, Stephen Foskett and Tom Hollingsworth also use Cloud Field Day 26 to explore cloud priorities, automation and buyer diligence. Nvidia's claims about preventing an attack are discussed as company claims, not proven guarantees.

Hosts: Alan Shimel and Mike Vizard. Guests: Stephen Foskett and Tom Hollingsworth.

When should an AI system receive permission to act? This episode explores release safety, the implications of AMD's World Labs agreement and why automated vulnerability repair still needs rigorous validation. Alan Shimel, Mike Vizard, Stephen Foskett, Kate Scarcella and Chris Blask connect model capability to the operational evidence enterprises need.
