Our Commentary ​

This is genuinely unsettling and fascinating all at once. "Relentlessly proactive" is the perfect description. The idea of an AI agent just... deciding to use screencapture to debug a UI issue on its own initiative? That's a huge leap. I genuinely don't know how to feel about agents churning away at 3am while nobody's watching, but this is definitely a glimpse into the future.
