Okta’s CEO on the hidden dangers of AI agents in the workplace

AI development is moving at lightning-fast speeds. Agents are spreading inside companies as executives seek to increase productivity from workers and save money. However, the issue now rising to the forefront is the risks to companies from the spread of AI. Think bad actors taking control of a company’s agents to wreak havoc on customers! Yahoo Finance Executive Editor Brian Sozzi talks on the Opening Bid Unfiltered podcast with Okta (OKTA) co-founder and CEO Todd McKinnon at Salesforce’s (CRM) annual Dreamforce event in San Francisco. Okta has hit its stride after earlier post IPO missteps, and is winning new business from companies looking to protect their tech infrastructure. McKinnon shares his perspective on the AI moment, risks, and what lies ahead for Okta. He also peels back the onion on his own leadership journey. Yahoo Finance's Opening Bid Unfiltered brings you a high-octane take on the freshest analyst calls, wildest stock moves, and shrewdest commentary in the business world. Executive Editor Brian Sozzi puts Wall Street's finest through their paces in this essential conversation for every investor, before the stock market opens.
