About the event
AI agents take on real work inside businesses but handing over more responsibility also raises some questions: what should an agent be allowed to access? Who is accountable when something is wrong? And how do you know what it has done? For growing businesses, scattered content infrastructure, legacy systems and unclear permissions can quickly become a blocker. Simultaneously, locking everything down can make AI too cumbersome to be useful. This Sifted Talks will look at how companies can find the balance: putting practical guardrails around AI agents without slowing teams down.
