E110: Why everybody is talking about AI agents!

Who knew a pizza order could blow up the internet?


In January, Jesse Pollak tagged an AI agent in a social media post saying, "I want some pizza."


That simple message triggered an AI-driven transaction—one automated agent placed the order while another coordinated payment.


The rise of AI agents has sparked discussions across industries and especially in compliance, AML, and financial crime.


Our expert hosts – Marit Rødevand, Fredrik Riiser, and Robin Lycka – are teaming up to ask: why is everybody talking about AI agents?


They discuss: what we can do with AI agents today, what will be possible in the next few months, and the long-term consequences on the compliance, AML, and financial crime industry.


Producer: Matthew Dunne-Miles

Editor: Dominic Delargy

Engineer: Nicholas Thon
