Arkose Labs released its Q3 2026 State of Agentic AI Trust Report. The study finds that personal AI agents, including Meta’s Muse, reveal their identity in less than 3% of interactions that involve sensitive actions such as logging in, signing up or checking out. Over 65% of sites in banking, gaming, tech and travel reported agents performing these tasks on behalf of customers. The report notes that control mechanisms have not kept pace with this growth.

Why it matters

Consumers may not realize an AI, not a human, is handling their login or payment, raising privacy and security concerns.
