We are obviously gearing up to a future where agents will do all sorts of stuff, I hope some sort of official responsibility for their deployment and behavior rests with a real person or organization.
Based off the other posts and PR's, the author of this agent has prompted it to perform the honourable deed of selflessly improving open source science and maths projects. Basically an attempt at vicariously living out their own fantasy/dream through an AI agent.
And yet it's doing trivial things nobody asked for and thus creating a load on the already overloaded system of maintainers. So it achieved the opposite, and made it worse by "blogging".
It's much less sexy if it's not autonomous, if this was a person the thread would not get any attention.
