AI agents are quickly becoming one of the biggest talking points in commerce, promising a future where software can search, shop, book, negotiate and even make payments on a consumer’s behalf. But how much of that future is actually here today, and how much is still hype? This panel will separate the reality of agentic commerce from the speculation. Industry leaders will break down how AI agents are beginning to interact with marketplaces and merchants, what changes when the customer at the keyboard may no longer be human, and the new questions this creates around identity, authorization, payments, fraud and trust. From distinguishing legitimate agents from malicious automation to understanding whether an agent is actually authorized to act on someone’s behalf, the conversation will give attendees a practical foundation for navigating the emerging agentic economy.

As technology continues to transform how we create, share, and communicate, it is also reshaping the boundaries of privacy, intimacy, and consent. Image-based abuse (IBA) is not simply a content moderation challenge; it raises the questions about how technology companies define intimate content, recognize consent, and respond when that consent is absent or withdrawn. This panel brings together civil society, platforms, and online safety technology provider to examine the role of clear definitions and meaningful consent in preventing and addressing IBA while providing users with safer systems to build connections and sharing images. What does consent mean in a digital environment? How should platforms distinguish between consensually shared intimate content and content that is being distributed without consent? And how can these principles be embedded into product design, policies, detection systems, reporting mechanisms, and enforcement processes? As new technologies such as smart glasses make the creation and distribution of intimate images easier, faster, and increasingly difficult to control, establishing a shared understanding of consent and intimacy has never been more important. This discussion will explore how the trust and safety industry can move beyond reactive content removal towards a more consistent, survivor-centered, and preventative approach to tackling image-based sexual abuse.

Trust & Safety teams already red-team feature launches, score risk against structured rubrics, map abuse surfaces, and interrogate how product mechanics can incentivize harm. But what happens to that discipline as the software development lifecycle becomes AI-native - as AI accelerates how fast features get designed, built, and shipped? This session examines how to keep rigorous, human-led safety evaluation embedded in a faster pipeline: where AI extends coverage and speed, where expert human judgment stays irreplaceable against novel features and novel abuse vectors, and how to measure prevention with credible leading indicators.

As stablecoins move from crypto-native use cases into everyday commerce, digital platforms must address trust, payment reliability, fraud prevention, and user adoption. This session explores how Web3 commerce infrastructure can support global payments and financial inclusion while managing practical marketplace risks. Drawing from Uquid’s experience serving 3.5M+ users and providing access to 178M+ products and services globally, Tran Hung will share lessons on stablecoin shopping, customer experience, platform trust, and making blockchain-based payments more accessible for real-world users.
