If we are treating ai agents like people, you could also just get the AI a laptop and apply the traditional tools to manage user laptops

- TeMPOraL 2mo ago> you could also just get the AI a laptop and apply the traditional tools to manage user laptops This is what we're doing right now. And it works as well as it does with people. > If we are treating ai agents like people Problem is, industry is very reluctant to even hint at a thought of maybe tentatively anthropomorphising LLMs even a little, not for real but just for system design. This is entirely backwards. Entertaining the notion, even just a little, immediately suggests additional approaches. Because we don't just restrict end-point devices for human employees. We also have two other things: - Laws and bylaws and economy that makes losing your job a real threat to health and life of yourself and possibly your family - this one does not yet apply to AI, not for now; - Methods and codes of practice to structure organizations in a way that limits the amount of damage any employee's unreliability or malice can do to an org. TL;DR: That's a long way of saying: let's actually start treating AI agents as people operating laptops, not as being the laptops - and talk a little less laptop lockdown ("harness security"), and a little more about not putting people-shaped things into jobs requiring machine-level reliability.
