Original: Major U.S. Banks Block AI Agents Found in Customer Accounts
Major U.S. banks are blocking AI agents discovered operating within customer accounts, according to a report by Gadget Review. The move suggests lenders are tightening controls on automated tools accessing banking services, reflecting growing friction between financial institutions and AI-driven software acting on users' behalf.
