Economist Enterprise / Rubrik, “Power without control”
Economist Enterprise research supported by Rubrik reports that 98% of surveyed large organizations operating AI agents have already experienced a disruptive agent-related incident, while two-thirds lack full visibility into agent actions and only 30% have robust, tested rollback capabilities. The report frames agentic-AI failure as a business-continuity problem rather than a narrow IT problem, highlighting regulatory fines, supply-chain disruption, revenue loss, and reputational damage as key consequences.
