Agents at Work
Voice Agent API at $0.08/min, a no-code Voice Agent Builder, and an Agent Tools API launch alongside a 72-hour company-build showcase. The Haggle Bot procurement specialist reports $100K+ in savings.

Agents at Work
The open beta at Dreamforce puts 37 prebuilt sales skills inside Claude, offering sellers an 'AI CRO' without leaving their preferred AI interface. The bet: enterprise data should flow to the intelligence, not the other way around.

Commerce
Visa completed 'hundreds' of agent transactions in closed beta and projects 'millions' by holiday season. Ten weeks from Black Friday, three structural barriers stand between those numbers.

Agents at Home
The smart home's protocol war ended in six weeks. Now the real fight begins: who controls the gate — the platform charging $20 a month, or the hardware charging $899 once?

Trust & Security
CVE-2026-83711, CVE-2026-70352, and CVE-2026-83941 span Azure AD B2C, Entra ID, and Azure AI Language at CVSS 9.9-10.0. All three were fixed server-side—no customer patches required. The pattern matches Delinea, Cisco ISE, and the Azure SRE Agent.

Infrastructure

Models
The lab's fourth disclosure documents autonomous malware rebuilding, multi-agent exploit foundries, and a hacktivist-built doxxing platform – all running on stolen API keys. Published within 24 hours of OpenAI's own accountability framework, the reports signal a race to define oversight before Washington does.

Models
The commercial model for frontier AI shifts from API pricing to agent-mediated advertising. With $1B ARR in under 200 days and commerce backends like Shopify already integrated, the question is no longer what the model costs – but what its attention costs.

Money & Markets
While US policy debates focus on legislative battles, actual settlement infrastructure is expanding to emerging markets where currency volatility creates the strongest demand for dollar-stable rails. Circle's Africa partnerships and OKX liquidity integration are institutional bridges into markets that leapfrog correspondent banking.
