AGENTIC PRODUCTS ARE GETTING AHEAD OF THEMSELVES ON ACCESS
Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter
Teams are racing to give agents access through virtual cards, API credentials, prepaid balances, and tokens without addressing what happens once they're inside. The harder problem is whether an LLM understands what a person asked for (intent), what the system allows (execution), and whether the two match. A payment can clear and still be the wrong purchase, and access doesn't equal authorization, which doesn't equal intent. Cards and API wrappers won't solve the problem, so teams need to understand the whole transaction lifecycle. AI makes software easier to generate but not easier to architect, and infrastructure has to be deliberate.
