Visa Mastercard Ant develop shared framework to verify AI agents — 2dVisa, Mastercard and Ant International are formalizing a Know-Your-Agent interoperability framework to identify and monitor AI agents across card networks and wallets while preserving each network’s own verification processes, aiming to unlock scalable agentic payments projected to reach $3–5 trillion in global commerce by 2030. The debate centers on which party captures value as agent-powered transactions shift away from traditional rails, with pilots and open standards (including Ant’s Model Context Protocol) expanding in Asia and through industry platforms to reduce duplicate identity checks and speed time-to-market.

Tom Gallagher The big issue is whether the card companies or the AI platforms end up keeping most of the value from these agent transactions.

Maya Lindstrom Spieth comparisons are heavy for a guy who just turned pro in June. Hope the pressure doesn't get to him before the actual event.

UN warns world likely to overshoot 1.5°C, sees possible path back — Sep 2, 2026A group of UN-led assessments warn that the 1.5°C limit is increasingly likely to be breached in coming years, but still callable back down through a sustained overshoot-and-reduction pathway that combines rapid emission cuts with large-scale carbon removal. The consensus remains that while overshoot is not inevitable catastrophe, it will entail decades of heightened climate risks and requires urgent, bolder action across mitigation, adaptation, and governance to keep temperatures from rising further.

Tom Gallagher Betting on carbon removal tech that doesn't exist at scale yet feels like a plan built on hope, not engineering.
