Thanks so much to CBS for having me on this morning alongside @TheKellyOGrady to talk AI agents, bank accounts and how consumers can keep their money safe and secure.
Major U.S. financial institutions are facing “unvetted and unauthorized AI agent activity,” says @MadisonMills22, a senior AI reporter at Axios, calling it “a nightmare” for banks.
Mills and CBS News’ @thekellyogrady share what exactly is happening with the agents — and how to safeguard your own accounts.

The @BrooklynNets throwback uniforms are terrific, and they are the originals. But they will never usurp these beautifies, with which the Nets of my youth hung two banners.

For years, I’ve worked to advance a New York City–Lake Placid Winter Olympics and Paralympics that brings our state together. Today, I was proud to join @GovKathyHochul and fellow committee members at the New York Athletic Club for the first full meeting of our Exploratory Committee.
As a Brooklyn native who has spent summers and winters in the Adirondacks, this is personal to me. I love both places, and I believe these Games can connect urban and rural communities that too often look past one another.
As I shared in my comments today, we have an opportunity to use existing venues and temporary facilities, protect taxpayers, preserve our environment, and create lasting opportunities for New Yorkers from Brooklyn to Lake Placid.
Thank you to Governor Hochul for bringing together the expertise and leadership to take this next step.
New York City. Lake Placid. One New York.
Joseph Spector retweeted
Let’s go!!!!
...one giant leap for New York State. @GovKathyHochul is ready to bring the Olympic flame back home to New York! With the 90-member Exploratory Committee now in formation, we will shape the vision for a competitive 2042 Winter Games bid. So start stretching!
