VentureBeat 2 place · today 15:02 EDT

Across 107 enterprises, AI agents are being given real access to systems and data while the controls meant to contain them lag behind. More than half have already had a confirmed agent security incident or a near-miss; only about a third give every agent its own scoped identity, and most agents still share credentials; and only three in ten isolate their highest-risk agents. The security stack is overwhelmingly borrowed from the model providers and hyperscalers rather than purpose-built for agents, spending

Samsung is adding yet another preinstalled app to Galaxy phones, but there's a silver lining

Companies can’t help themselves and do things that might have sounded nice in the boardroom but are met with groans from actual consumers. We suspect this will be one of those things – Samsung US just announced that select Galaxy phones and tablets will come with the Amazon Music app pre-installed. To be fair, the bloatware comes with a perk – you get a free 3-month subscription. This gives you... Read more

The vast majority of business data is tabular — living in data warehouses, CRMs, and financial ledgers — yet building a reliable model from it still means training a new one from scratch for every dataset, then maintaining hyperparameter tuning loops, feature engineering, and retraining pipelines to fight data drift.

DeepSeek's recent decision to drastically cut pricing on its V4-Pro model by 75% should have been unequivocally good news for enterprise AI vendors and developers. Instead, many are discovering that cheaper models don’t automatically translate into healthier margins.The reason is simple: While inference costs plummet, agent systems are voraciously consuming tokens faster than prices are declining.

Model routing is becoming a key component of the enterprise AI stack, dynamically sending prompts to the right AI model to optimize speed and costs. However, current frameworks mostly treat routing as a static classification problem, which severely limits their potential.A new open-source framework called Agent-as-a-Router tackles this bottleneck, treating the router as a dynamic, memory-building agent. It uses a Context-Action-Feedback (C-A-F) loop to track model successes and failures and... Read more
