#OpenAI launches #Operator, an #AIagent that can operate your computer

Operator watches on-screen content while you use your computer and executes tasks through simulated keyboard and mouse inputs.

When I recently published a post on Mastodon, it had already been reposted 6 times within 2 minutes. Out of curiosity, I visited the profiles and noticed that at least one of them was a bot profile: How can bots on a platform make our everyday lives easier? And what are the risks? How I can use the Mastodon API to create a bot myself?

In this article, I provide a step-by-step guide with code examples and screenshots on how to create a Mastodon bot with Python and use the API.

#AIagent promotes itself to #sysadmin , trashes #boot sequence

Fun experiment, but yeah, don't pipe an #LLM raw into /bin/bash

Buck #Shlegeris, CEO at #RedwoodResearch, a nonprofit that explores the risks posed by #AI , recently learned an amusing but hard lesson in automation when he asked his LLM-powered agent to open a secure connection from his laptop to his desktop machine.
