Wall Street prepares for AI's "day after"

TL;DR

America's largest banks are working to prevent AI worst-case scenarios. But they're also preparing for the "day after" a catastrophe, Axios has learned. Why it matters: America's financial institutions have joined the largest AI companies in scenario-planning for disaster, a prudent but worrisome signal about the extent of the risk that major corporations see on the horizon.

Nauti's Take

Small teams should first audit which agents in their workflows can access real logins, payment data, or broad permissions. Until the reporting is better substantiated, test only with isolated accounts, detailed logging, and human approval for every external action.
