Why handing over total control to AI agents would be a huge mistake

These developments mark a major advance in artificial intelligence: systems designed to operate in the digital world without direct human oversight. Who doesn't want assistance with cumbersome work or tasks there's no time for? Agent assistance could soon take many different forms, such as reminding you to ask a colleague about their kid's basketball tournament or finding images for your next presentation. Within a few weeks, they'll probably be able to make presentations for you. For people with hand mobility issues or low vision, agents could complete tasks online in response to simple language commands.
