Carlos Torres Vila (BBVA) calls for a "Know Your Agent" framework for personal AI agents
BBVA chairman Carlos Torres Vila warns that companies are not prepared to interact with personal AI agents, which today access services by impersonating users with their passwords. He proposes a "Know Your Agent" framework: agent identification, specific and revocable permissions, a log of every action and a standard access channel on fair terms. BBVA was the first European bank to join the Personal Agent Protocol, led by Meta and startup Sierra.
