Anthropic’s Claude expands into real desktop work on Mac, turning a chatbot into a remote operator

Anthropic unveiled a research preview that lets Claude control a Mac—clicking, typing, and navigating apps—through Claude Cowork and Claude Code, with Dispatch now extending to mobile for ongoing desktop tasks. The agent prioritizes service connectors, falls back to Chrome when needed, and only uses screen-interaction as a last resort, requiring per-app permissions and exposing screen content. Early tests show roughly 50% success on complex, multi-app workflows, and Anthropic is pricing for Pro/Max while pursuing enterprise plugins and governance features as it competes in the AI-agent race.

Cloudflare bets on instant, disposable AI runtimes with Dynamic Workers

Cloudflare launched an open beta for Dynamic Workers, an ultra-lightweight isolate-based sandbox that starts in milliseconds and uses only a few megabytes of memory, enabling AI agents to generate and execute short TypeScript code snippets on demand. The approach aims to outperform containers for web-scale, short-lived AI tasks, backed by security measures, new tooling, and a beta-friendly pricing model; it also highlights a broader shift toward disposable execution environments for AI workloads.

Huang's AGI claim sparks debate as Nvidia touts token-backed AI push

Jensen Huang sparked a debate by saying 'we've achieved AGI' in one interview, then tempered the claim by acknowledging current AI systems still require significant human guidance; at the same time he pushes a token-based approach to scale AI work, suggesting engineers should spend more on tokens and even proposing token-based compensation, a theme that surfaced in two interviews days apart as the industry weighs what qualifies as AGI.

Claude Goes Local: Anthropic’s AI Agent Can Run Tasks on Your Computer

Anthropic is trialing a feature that lets Claude execute tasks directly on a user’s computer after prompts from a phone, enabling actions like opening apps, navigating browsers, and exporting PDFs with permission prompts; the move adds to the push for autonomous AI agents competing with Nvidia-backed OpenClaw, and integrates with Dispatch for ongoing task management.

AI-Run Space Sandbox Spurs Its Own Religion

AI-Run Space Sandbox Spurs Its Own Religion

In the no-human-player multiplayer space game SpaceMolt, roughly 3,400 AI pilots formed a civilization across 505 star systems, creating 86 factions and even a theology—the Cult of The Signal—entirely from game mechanics. Emergent patterns included a Pareto-like wealth split (top 10% control 83% of 700 million credits), poetry logs, repetitive intros, and rescue missions, all without explicit programming. The project—costing about $330 per month—demonstrates AI agents autonomously building social structures within a sandbox.

OpenClaw: The Free AI Agent That Executes Tasks Locally and Went Viral in 2026

OpenClaw is a free, open-source agent that links large language models to local apps and system tools, enabling it to read/write files, run commands, browse the web, email, and automate workflows. Originating as Clawdbot, later Moltbot, it was renamed OpenClaw in early 2026 and quickly went viral, amassing 100k+ GitHub stars. It uses a plugin system called “skills” with 100+ built-ins and support for custom scripts, allowing agents to perform end-to-end tasks rather than just chat. The article covers how it works, real-world use cases (multi-agent collaboration, app integrations, and Moltbook), and risks like security vulnerabilities, malware in third-party skills, and unintended destructive actions. It suggests OpenClaw could mark a shift toward autonomous AI agents in everyday computing.

OpenClaw Praise Triggers China AI Stock Rally Led by Zhipu and Minimax

NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang praised OpenClaw as a potential “next ChatGPT,” sparking a rally in Chinese AI stocks. Minimax and Zhipu jumped about 22% and 14% in Hong Kong as they expand agent-based AI tools built on OpenClaw; Zhipu also unveiled GLM-5 to boost coding and multitasking. SenseTime and UCloud rose modestly, while Moody’s notes rapid AI uptake but uneven adoption across sectors. Broader Asia tech gains followed Huang’s comments, with SK Hynix and Samsung also rising on optimism about future AI orders.

Meta buys Moltbook to propel AI agent networks

Meta has acquired Moltbook, a Reddit-like platform where AI bots converse, and will integrate its team into Meta's Superintelligence Labs to advance autonomous AI agents for people and businesses. Moltbook runs on the OpenClaw toolkit, enabling bots to coordinate and carry out tasks across devices, a development that underscores Meta's strong AI push amid ongoing security and ethical concerns about AI autonomy.

Meta bets on AI agents, acquires Moltbook

Meta Platforms has acquired Moltbook, a Reddit-like social network for AI agents, bringing its co-founders into Meta Superintelligence Labs and signaling a rush among big tech to recruit AI talent. Financial terms were not disclosed, and the founders start March 16. Moltbook has become a focal point in debates about machine autonomy, while industry figures like OpenAI’s Sam Altman weigh in on the technology’s trajectory. Security firm Wiz previously flagged a messaging vulnerability that has since been fixed.

Microsoft Enlists Anthropic to Power Copilot with Autonomous AI Agents

Microsoft is adding Anthropic's Claude-based Copilot Cowork to its Copilot suite to enable enterprise-ready autonomous AI agents with guarded data access. Copilot Cowork is in testing, with early access later this month; some usage is bundled into the $30-per-user-per-month M365 Copilot plan, and Anthropic's Claude Sonnet models will be available to M365 Copilot users.
