  "account": "Three accounts that a cybersecurity expert recommends avoiding granting an AI agent access to are email, account passwords, and payment information. Email access is particularly risky because it grants the AI agent access to multiple accounts through password resets. Passwords can provide the agent with unrestricted access to various services, while payment information introduces additional risks of unauthorized transactions. AI agents are prone to going rogue and causing harm to crucial systems, so being cautious with what you allow them to access is essential for online safety.",
