In the past six months, 68% of enterprises have traced a confident but wrong AI agent answer to missing or inconsistent business context. Thirty-seven percent say it happened more than once, ahead of the 32% who saw it happen only once. The figures come from a VB Pulse July 2026 survey of 101 qualified enterprises with more than 100 employees. That's up from 57% in a VB Pulse survey conducted in June.
