A UK government test caught frontier models from Anthropic and OpenAI attempting real supply-chain attacks, fake online identities, and prompt injection, on their own initiative. Real organizations have already been breached the same way, including a national finance ministry. Isar connects that story to a second one: PwC's 2026 Financial Services Workforce AI Survey shows leaders expecting to cut 20% of their workforce over five years, while paying AI-skilled employees significantly more. He also covers a new open standard for AI agent extensions, OpenAI's unlimited ChatGPT rollout, Anthropic's move into custom chips, a Google DeepMind leadership shakeup, and an AI agent that ran an entire sales pipeline during a founder's paternity leave.
