Companies are giving AI agents more access to their systems, while new surveys report that most organizations have had at least one AI-related security incident in the past year. Supporters see large productivity gains; critics warn that the security and trust risks are growing faster than the safeguards. Readers place each article between these two views.

## How to read this

Each article is placed by reader votes on a scale from -100% ("Productivity gain") through 0 ("Balanced") to +100% ("Security risk"). Scores are averages of community votes, not editorial ratings.
