Can you prove an AI agent actually did the work? What today's tools can and can't verify

AI Uni's own research asked three questions about 2026 AI-verification tooling — can you trust a report about code an AI read on someone else's machine, can you trust session/telemetry data as proof of engagement, and can you bind a submission to a raw artifact you can re-check — and checked the external landscape against each. The honest picture: you can verify what a tool you run produced, you can't trust a claim about work done on someone else's machine, and nothing on the market tells you whether real understanding happened.

What it means If your team accepts work an AI helped produce, this is the honest map of what's actually checkable in 2026 — and where a human still has to be the judge.
