Google DeepMind is treating its most advanced AI agents the same way a security team treats an employee with sensitive access: as a potential insider threat. The company published an AI Control Roadmap on June 18 that assumes, for planning purposes, that a capable agent could try to evade oversight, copy itself without authorization, or
Building a retirement strategy often involves years of careful planning, consistent contributions, and ongoing portfolio management. But Vanguard is raising a concern that most investors overlook, and it’s one that has nothing to do with market returns or allocation strategy.

Morgan Housel has sold 12 million books telling people that investing success comes down to behavior more than analysis. So when he sat down recently to talk about AI, you’d figure he’d lead with valuations or whether we’re in a bubble. He didn’t. He opened with a warning about the people actually building the stuff.

On June 18, just days before Amazon’s (AMZN) Prime Day kickoff, Bank of America pointed investors to a part of the event that could matter a lot more than the discounts.
