Enterprise AI Agents Scale Up Through Partnerships and Funding, But Data Readiness Lags Ambition
A wave of vertical AI-agent startups (Swarm, Veridox, Avallon AI, DA2, F2, Earthian, Meanwhile, Covecta, Penguin AI, Maisa AI) is being funded and profiled just as major infrastructure players — Microsoft/Mistral, Siemens/NVIDIA, and Manulife/Microsoft — cement enterprise AI governance and compute partnerships. Yet a Google Cloud report shows AI agents still lack access to the majority of company data (only 45% on average), and insider selling at incumbent C3.ai signals investor caution even as adoption intent (100% planned agentic AI use within two years) races ahead of actual data infrastructure.

Where sources disagree
Berkshire Hathaway
Both facts report Berkshire Hathaway's cash position on 2026-01-01 with identical observation timestamps, but claim vastly different values: 380 billion USD vs 400 USD. These cannot both be true for the same entity at the same point in time. The magnitude of the discrepancy (a factor of ~10^9) rules out rounding, unit conversion, or methodological differences.
