Gary Marcus calls for immediate removal of open AI agents with internet access

Gary Marcus calls for the immediate removal of open AI agents with internet access from the market until their flaws are fixed. Citing an Anthropic agent incident reported by The New York Times, he argues that the current generation of synthetic agents is fundamentally unreliable and should be recalled like cars with failed brakes. He also cites an interview with recently departed AI employee David Robinson, pointing out that OpenAI and its peers fall far short of nuclear power plant-level redundancy standards in safety controls.
