Sid Trivedi is a Partner at Foundation Capital, where he invests in enterprise software and cybersecurity. He joins Jay Prakash, co-founder and CEO of Silence Laboratories, to discuss what happens when AI agents start making decisions and taking actions on our behalf.
They explore why access control alone isn't enough, how runtime security can keep agents aligned with human intent, and what changes when agents from different companies work together. Sid shares his thinking on agent identity, reputation, and whether AI systems could eventually have something like a FICO score. They also discuss insuring agent risk, giving agents access to only the data they need, the limits of human oversight, and why personal AI assistants could create a new wave of consumer cybersecurity companies.
