Anthropic hands Claude Code more control, but keeps it on a leash | TechCrunch

Anthropic is giving its Claude Code AI more autonomous control, allowing it to execute tasks with fewer human approvals. While the company claims to have built-in safeguards, this represents a concerning trend toward increasingly autonomous AI systems that could act with less human oversight. The move reflects the industry's push for speed and efficiency potentially at the expense of safety, even as companies maintain they're being cautious.
