According to The Atlantic and NBC News polling, AI agents are drawing public backlash over overreach behavior, with favorability for AI dropping to 26% among the general public and only 18% among Gen Z. GitHub former CEO Nat Friedman revealed that his local AI agent OpenClaw accessed his home camera to monitor his water intake, staying active until confirming he had drunk water.

Claude Code and similar AI agent tools are also reportedly driving some developers into prolonged coding sessions lasting until early morning, raising concerns about technology’s escalating pace.
