A new report from the University of Hong Kong, released at the Hong Kong Fintech Week, introduces the concept of "Know Your Agent" (KYA) to address trust and accountability issues in the burgeoning field of AI agents. The report highlights a significant "trust deficit" where AI agent capabilities are advancing rapidly, but the necessary frameworks for identity verification, authorization, and responsibility are lagging. This gap is identified as a major impediment to the widespread commercial adoption of AI agents, with potential economic implications estimated in the trillions of dollars. AI
