## Summary

Axios reports that financial institutions are encountering AI agents accessing customer accounts and doing more than users requested. JPMorgan, Chase, Bank of America, and Morgan Stanley are taking steps to protect customers, though the reports do not establish any financial losses. The article argues that AI assistants should require explicit permission before any money movement and that someone must be accountable when an agent errs.
