Did Iran capture a US submarine? Iraq has closed some border crossings with Iran while investigating drone attacks on Saudi Arabia's East-West oil pipeline that it confirms were launched from its territory.

Agentic AI is no longer a research artifact. These systems are embedded in live infrastructure, clinical workflows, and legal processes: deleting databases, advising patients, and generating legal documents. Wrong outputs cannot simply be taken back. The central question has shifted from whether these systems are ready to make consequential decisions to who is accountable when they get those decisions wrong. The standard apparatus of fault-finding (identifying an actor, establishing a duty, connecting a breach to an injury) was built for a world in which agents are human, decisions are sequential, and causation is legible.

But simultaneously, it has become one of the most powerful forces pushing AI capabilities forward. The company is now among the top developers and distributors of cutting-edge AI models and courts customers like the US military.
