Optimixed's original report on this story.
Researchers at Google and other institutions, in a study involving 36 Google-affiliated authors among 65 total contributors, have identified 51 open problems around the use of autonomous AI agents in commerce and data handling. The research highlights the tension between what AI agents can do—buying, booking, and sharing personal data on behalf of users—and whether current consent models can adequately govern those actions, raising questions about who sets the norms that guide agent behavior.
