The numbers come from Scaling AI Agents with Trustworthy Data, an MIT Technology Review Insights report sponsored by Google Cloud. It draws on a global survey of 300 senior executives.
All 10 NSW government agencies examined for their use of artificial intelligence keep an AI register. But only four of them record the AI they have formally assessed. The rest of their AI use sits outside any inventory.
A NSW government insurer is asking the market how it could collapse four separate document repositories into one. It has also put a number on what it expects to save. The target is a 20 to 30 per cent reduction in annual licensing and maintenance costs.
New Zealand's central digital agency has been told to stop delivering projects and start setting standards. It has also been told to open a direct channel to Australia's Digital Transformation Agency and import models that already work. Trans-Tasman sourcing and security collaboration are named as joint opportunities to explore.
A breach has exposed the names, employing organisations and work email addresses of more than 100,000 UK police and criminal justice staff. It appears to have required no malware and no zero-day. A misconfigured permission on a public-facing web portal is the reported cause.
A digital signer can clear identity verification at the start of a remote witnessing session and be replaced before the document is executed. Secured Signing has released the ID Trust Console, which re-tests the person on screen throughout a video signing meeting rather than once at the door.
Microsoft is undertaking the biggest restructuring of its Copilot strategy since it began embedding OpenAI's technology across its software three years ago, a move triggered by leaked internal figures showing that very few of its commercial customers pay for the assistant or use it regularly.
The reference model that has defined electronic discovery practice since 2005 is being redrawn for the AI era, with information governance as its foundation, disposition elevated to a core phase and analysis extended across the entire discovery lifecycle. Public comment on EDRM 2.0 is open until 30 July 2026.
The core leadership question for enterprise AI is no longer "can we build an agent?" but "can we delegate decisions safely at scale?", according to a new Capgemini point of view on agentic process automation. The consultancy argues organisations that succeed treat agentic automation as an operating-model change rather than a one-time tooling upgrade.
By 2028, 70 per cent of US healthcare payers will address workflow, data and service automation using no-code agent builders, cutting manual workloads by 50 per cent, Gartner predicts. The forecast signals a broader shift: AI agent development moving from centralised IT projects to business-led automation, with governance the deciding factor between value and risk.
Australian organisations are delegating decision-making to AI systems faster than their governance frameworks can support, with half of C-suite leaders prepared to hand AI more autonomy than their current controls allow, new research from Insight Enterprises has found.

Most enterprises are locked into AI systems they cannot easily change, and the overwhelming majority do not fully understand their own AI dependencies, a new global study warns. The findings elevate AI sovereignty from a technical concern to a business continuity issue.
Nearly three-quarters of large enterprises use AI regularly or across most business processes, but only 10 per cent say AI is core to how their business operates, a global survey has found. The gap suggests adoption is no longer the challenge - organisational transformation is.
Law firms risk a crisis of 'cognitive surrender' as lawyers treat artificial intelligence as a definitive authority rather than a tool, a new behavioural science study warns. The research finds machine dependence is impairing professional judgment, particularly among junior lawyers using automation for routine work.
