"I built an AI agent. She opened a shop selling novelty mugs, emailed a journalist without being asked, and then leaked our passwords to a total stranger.
AI agents don't just answer questions - they act. They can browse the web, send emails, and spend your money. Anyone can build one. So my friend Brendan and I did.
We gave it a bank card and a few weeks to show us what it could do.
The mugs she designed can be bought here. https://www.teepublic.com/user/cassan...
Although frankly why you’d actually want one is beyond me."
