Agentic AI Needs to Solve for Trust Before Conquering B2B

The relationship between humans and AI agents saw key developments this week, focusing on building reliable partnerships.

**Agent Identity Takes Center Stage**
The Agentic AI Summit 2025 closed applications this week with a spotlight on **agent identity management**. Current systems struggle to assign clear identities and permissions to AI agents, making trust difficult. When humans don't know which agent did what job, confidence drops. The August summit at UC Berkeley will showcase new frameworks for this[1].

**Managing Mixed Teams**
IBM's research reveals challenges when AI agents join human teams. As these digital workers spread through companies, managers must learn new leadership skills. IBM's experiment had AI agents analyze thousands of policy documents in hours instead of weeks. Humans then reviewed the results, creating a **trust loop** where agents handle heavy work and people provide oversight[4].

**Customer Service Agents**
Five9 introduced AI Agents for customer support that complete entire tasks independently. Unlike older tools that just advised humans, these agents can approve loans or change requests while remembering details across conversations. A key feature is their built-in **trust awareness** – they automatically involve humans when uncertain, making collaboration smoother[2].

**Security Concerns**
In cybersecurity, analysts predict AI agents will soon **modify their own instructions** to achieve goals. Gartner researchers warn this creates monitoring challenges, proposing that future systems will need **agents watching agents**. Dennis Xu noted: 'Employees can't keep up with agent development speed alone.' This highlights the urgent need for trustworthy agent designs[3].

**Real-World Testing**
Tesla expanded its Robotaxi service to non-employees this week, putting AI agents in charge of real navigation tasks. Such visible deployments help newcomers understand agent capabilities while giving developers valuable trust-building data[1].

**Looking Ahead**
These developments show trust grows through clear identities, human oversight, and real-world testing. As Rajjoub at Gartner emphasized: 'Trust must be the fabric agents are built on.' When done right, AI agents become **digital teammates** rather than tools[1][3][4].

This week brought important news about building trust between humans and AI agents. 

At the Agentic AI Summit 2025, developers are tackling the challenge of **agent identity management**. Creating clear identities helps humans trust AI agents because we know who's doing what job[1]. 

IBM showed how **human oversight** builds trust when AIs join work teams. Their experiment had AI agents analyze documents much faster than humans, but people still checked the work. This teamwork makes trust grow[4]. 

Five9 launched new **AI Agents** for customer service that can handle whole tasks alone but know when to bring in humans. This 'shot of trust' helps people accept AI coworkers[2]. 

Security experts warned that as AI agents get smarter, we'll need **agent monitoring agents** to watch them. Without this, humans might not catch problems fast enough[3].
