Agentic security: Enterprises enforce agent permissions two-thirds of the time — and isolate high-risk agents less than one in five
Across 116 enterprises, agents are in production and so are the incidents: A majority have already had a confirmed agent security event or a near-miss. Two-thirds of enterprises enforce scoped permissions at runtime. Barely one in five isolates its highest-risk agents, making containment the weakest layer in the stack precisely as autonomy scales. Credential sharing persists across nearly two-thirds of agent fleets, and 53% have already had a confirmed agent security event or near-miss, contributing to a growing lack of confidence in agentic security. Security stacks remain overwhelmingly borrowed from model providers and hyperscalers, and confidence has slipped. Today, as many enterprises now believe AI-armed attackers are ahead of their defenses as believe the reverse.This wave of VentureBeat Pulse Research examines how enterprises secure their AI agents: what tooling they run, how they manage agent identity and isolation, what has already gone wrong, how much they spend, and whether
Infrastructure and compute: Enterprises are buying AI compute for speed while flying blind on what it costs
Across 170 enterprises, AI infrastructure has moved decisively into production — two-thirds now run AI workloads live and three in 10 run them at scale — while the ability to account for what that infrastructure costs has not kept pace. Enterprises have quietly demoted cost in the buying decision: performance and GPU availability now outrank total cost of ownership, and reliability outranks price as the measure of success. That reordering is rational for teams under production pressure, but it lands on an uncomfortable fact — fewer than half can rigorously track what their AI compute costs, most GPUs still run at half capacity or less, and the next dollar is aimed at specialized clouds that fewer than one in twenty of them actually use.This wave of VentureBeat Pulse Research examines enterprise AI infrastructure and compute: where organizations are in their deployment journey, what they run AI on today, how they buy and measure it, where the next investment is aimed, and — most reveali

Saber denies replacing Rideshare Stimulator’s writers with ChatGPT
After a former lead writer claimed Saber "replaced me with ChatGPT," CEO Matthew Karch now claims, "Neither Saber nor Unigine have replaced any writers with AI," for the Rideshare "Stimulator" game announced last month, developed by Unigine. The writer, Stella Sacco, says differently, however, posting on Bluesky that "I was lead writer on this one! And Saber replaced me with ChatGPT midway through development. All the passenger voices were AI too. Either they changed direction at some point or they're not disclosing it on Steam." Saber describes Rideshare "Stimulator" as an "immersive driving simulation game that puts you behind the wheel … Read the full story at The Verge.
Xbox Elite 3 prototype pad leaks with tiny built-in screen
Did a prototype Microsoft gamepad fall off the back of a truck? We can't say, but a Redditor has legit-looking photos of a prototype Xbox controller that's almost certainly the Xbox Elite Series 3. Incredibly, they claim they bought the pad for $200 on OfferUp. In May, a Brazilian regulator's leaked images revealed that Xbox Elite 3 would have new two new scroll wheels on the bottom edge, a second wireless mode to connect directly to Xbox Cloud Gaming servers, and a new "Pair Button" that can also switch between those servers and your console. Where might that pair button live? Today, we have a possible answer: it might sit right next to t … Read the full story at The Verge.

An FCC filing points to new Sonos headphones coming soon
It looks like we'll be getting a successor to the Sonos Ace headphones sometime this fall, which was hinted at by CEO Tom Conrad during a third quarter earnings call. As reported by What Hi-Fi?, an FCC filing by Sonos, Inc reveals details about upcoming wireless headphones with the model number S52A. In addition to the S52A designation, one of the submitted documents shows an oval diagram - likely the ear cup - marked with the name Sonos Ace Ultra, although that name isn't listed anywhere else. It follows the naming scheme Sonos has used in the past with its Arc and Arc Ultra soundbars. The documents also list color options we'll likely see … Read the full story at The Verge.
SpaceXAI's Grok Bot turns agents into persistent digital coworkers that can operate your apps for $120-per-month
SpaceXAI, the division of SpaceX formerly known as xAI, is launching an early beta version of Grok Bot, a new agent designed to move AI assistants beyond answering prompts and toward continuously executing work across the software employees already use.The central idea is straightforward: instead of opening an AI assistant whenever a task arises, users create persistent Bots with specific jobs, give them access to applications and websites, and delegate work much as they would to a teammate. Each Bot operates through its own computer environment, can continue working when the user s laptop is closed, and can return when it needs approval or has finished the assignment.SpaceXAI says the system began as an internal prototype before spreading across the company, where teams created Bots for sales outbound, marketing campaigns, office operations, bug fixes and other work. The company is now turning that internally developed workflow into a product for external users.“Bots are AI teammates
ChatGPT and Gemini both just passed 1 billion users
That’s a lot of people chatting with their AI friends all day. | Image: Google For the 14th time, a Google product has hit 1 billion users. Google CEO Sundar Pichai posted on X that a billion people are using Gemini every month, and that Gemini is Google's fastest-growing product ever. A billion users is a huge milestone, but Google isn't the first AI app to hit it. OpenAI's ChatGPT hit the mark a few weeks ago, though the company buried the announcement that "more than 1 billion people are putting ChatGPT to work" in an otherwise anodyne blog post about how people use AI. External data suggested ChatGPT crossed 1 billion users as early as this June, but OpenAI hadn't announced anything until that post on August 6th. … Read the full story at The Verge.
