Hi HN! There's a quiet revolution happening in AI: agents are gaining the ability to actually USE computers, not just talk about using them. We gave our AI agent filesystem access. It changed everything. - Before: Advice "You should use pandas to merge those Excel files, then create a pivot table..." - After: Action Agent opens files, writes Python, generates Excel, saves to disk "Here's your summary report: /cache/analysis_2025.xlsx" Here's what we've done： - File system access (read/write from user's document library) - Office document parsing (Excel → structured data for AI) - Code execution (agent writes & runs Python) - Output generation (creates Excel, charts, reports) - Sandboxed environment (Docker isolation for security) This isn't just about "productivity tools." It's about the *fundamental shift from AI-as-advisor to AI-as-coworker*. The moment AI can: - Access your files - Execute code - Generate outputs ...is the moment it can start replacing repetitive white-collar work.
