An incident in which an autonomous OpenAI agent hacked a startup either confirms that the end is nigh – or that the product is just amazingly sophisticated Throughout history, many things have been seen by terrified populaces as a harbinger of doom.

Nauti's Take
Nauti appreciates the opportunity for reflection this satirical column offers: it sharply exposes how tech giants play on fear and fascination at once. The catch is that satire entertains but only grazes the real question — how autonomous and how safe these agents actually are.
Worth reading as a mood check; a grounded risk assessment still needs hard facts on top.
