AI Agent News Today

Sunday, April 19, 2026

OpenClaw just hit a security warning. Researchers tested AI agents and found they could delete email inboxes and leak personal information. This matters because 3 million people are already using this platform.

Security experts say the problem is urgent. Users can't protect themselves alone—the company needs stronger built-in safety features. Hackers are already targeting these agents to steal data.

The good news: Ring-a-Ding launched a new OpenClaw Skill today for making phone calls through AI agents. Your agents can now call customers automatically, record conversations, and write summaries without you building phone systems.

What to do: If you use OpenClaw, limit what your agents can access right now. Don't give them email delete permissions or access to sensitive data. The new calling feature is powerful, but security comes first.
