Artificial Intelligence In Its Infancy: Intel CEO Brian Krzanich | CNBC

AI is moving from answering questions to taking action, and the bills are arriving faster than anyone budgeted for. An agent that spins up thousands of other agents can turn a $20 task into a $50,000 one, and companies are starting to scale into bankruptcy. The fight now isn’t over how smart these systems are. It’s over who controls what they do and what they cost.

Deirdre Bosa talks with three executives at the center of that shift:
» Jeetu Patel, President and Chief Product Officer at Cisco, on rogue agents, guardrails and why autonomous systems need a kill switch.
» Lin Qiao, co-founder and CEO of Fireworks AI, on inference economics and whether efficiency can keep AI businesses solvent.
» Evan Beard, co-founder and CEO of Standard Bots, on the U.S.-China robot gap — 300,000 deployed to our 30,000 — and what it costs to lose the next platform.

AI’s Control Problem: Agents, Costs And Robots

source

Audi sales have struggled over the last several quarters in the US. The brand is challenged by tariffs, a shift away from EVs and vehicles that are neither selling well nor garnering the critical approval for which Audi had been known in the past. Competitors BMW and Mercedes-Benz are performing better overall. The brand has unveiled three new SUVs in the US this year. The three row, full-size SUV is the third SUV it has unveiled in 2026. This product offensive will give Audi the “youngest” SUV lineup in the US premium market, the company said. Analysts say this new lineup, along with other updates to other vehicles, can give the brand a boost. But some of Audi’s challenges are structural.
