Ars technica’s lack of journalistic integrity aside, I wonder how long until an agent decides to order a hit on someone on the datk web to reach its goals.

We’re probably only a couple OpenClaw skills away from this being straightforward.

“Make my startup profitable at any cost” could lead some unhinged agent to go quite wild.

Therefore, I assume that in 2026 we will see some interesting legal case where a human is tried for the actions of the autonomous agent they’ve started without guardrails.
