00:09Reuters reports that U.S. authorities are asking banks
00:12how they control advanced AI agents monitor their decisions
00:15and prevent them from exceeding their authority.
00:18These systems can perform tasks with limited human supervision,
00:22including helping identify cyber threats.
00:24But greater autonomy also raises questions about oversight.
00:27Security and accountability.
00:29In Britain, supervisors are encouraging major banks
00:32to strengthen independent recovery systems.
00:35That could help restore operations if their main technology is compromised.
00:39The European Central Bank has also asked lenders
00:42to prepare plans addressing AI-enabled cyber threats,
00:46with an end-of-October deadline reported by Reuters.
00:49The stakes go beyond technology.
00:51A serious cyber attack could interrupt payments
00:54or prevent customers from accessing their accounts.
00:57Regulators are now examining whether banks can adopt powerful AI
01:01while keeping essential financial services secure.
