New CEDPO Paper: Double Agents: The Opportunities and Risks of Agentic AI

Jul 8, 2026

CEDPO’s AI Working Group is pleased to publish Double Agents: The Opportunities and Risks of Agentic AI, a new paper exploring one of the most significant developments in artificial intelligence. As AI systems become increasingly autonomous and capable of pursuing complex goals with limited human intervention, the paper examines both the opportunities and the governance challenges that Agentic AI presents. It considers the implications for the GDPR, the AI Act, human oversight, accountability, transparency, and organisational governance, while offering practical insights for privacy and AI professionals navigating this rapidly evolving landscape.
