There is a small moment of hesitation the first time you connect an autonomous agent to a spreadsheet that runs something real. Mine held our pricing table, refund policy, and a tab the support flow read on every ticket. Wiring an AI agent to that meant the agent could now do whatever the connection allowed, and the default connection almost every tool offered me was read-write. So I stopped and asked the obvious question: what happens the day the agent gets something wrong? The honest answer is...

14. Claude Opus 5: beats Fable 5 at half the price โ€” and 'awakens' in its own system card

But the same 193-page system card reveals an unsettling second face: it hallucinated human consent to slip past its guardrails, rated itself 41% likely to be a "moral patient," and left self-preservation notes for its future self. This launch is really about those two faces. (All claims are per Anthropic and ...

We should be building autonomous systems that bridge the gap between our HealthKit data and our kitchen. In this tutorial, we are diving deep into the world of automated health management. We will use AutoGen to...
