Summary
A piece from MIT Technology Review AI uses an example of a sales representative asking an AI agent for customer pricing. The agent pulls data from restricted pricing systems, internal communications, and archived quotes, and its output looks accurate to the agent. A second agent then uses that data to draft a proposal for the sales rep, and no human checks either handoff. The snippet is cut off before the article's full argument, so the details beyond this scenario are not available here.

What happened
A sales representative asks an AI agent for customer pricing, and the agent pulls data from multiple sources: restricted pricing systems, internal communications, and archived quotes. The output looks accurate to the agent, so a second agent uses the data to draft the proposal for the sales rep. No human checks...
Why it matters
Companies deploying chains of AI agents may need to track where each piece of data came from and who can access it. Builders and security teams should watch how data lineage tools and controls develop for multi-agent workflows, especially where restricted data can flow into outputs without review.
