What stands out
Lisa Martin lays out a neat, uncomfortable idea: after the capability sprint, the artificial intelligence (AI) story becomes about control. Her "agent versus agent" paradox, and comments from OpenAI CEO Sam Altman about new cybersecurity risks, turn attention to companies that stop bad agents as well as build good ones. That shift matters because it redirects capital toward defense vendors like Palo Alto Networks and CrowdStrike, and because investor confidence in AI products now looks as important as raw model performance.
