Five Eyes Agencies Issue Critical Warning on AI Agents

Security agencies from Five Eyes (US, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand) released urgent guidance warning that rapid rollouts of agentic AI are too risky. These self-operating AI systems can malfunction and cause major damage. The agencies recommend deploying AI agents slowly and carefully, starting with low-risk tasks and keeping humans in control.

Google Announces Free AI Agents Training

Google is launching a 5-day AI Agents Intensive course starting next month, teaching the latest techniques for building autonomous AI systems. The course requires basic Python knowledge and covers "agentic workflow" practices. While foundational materials are free, advanced content may require payment.

Your Next Move: If you're considering AI agents for your work, start with the Five Eyes security checklist first to avoid costly mistakes. Then explore Google's course to understand what's actually possible.
