Claude Duet goes ambient: Anthropic's AI now runs tasks while you look away.

From the editor

Two threads run through today's briefing. First, Claude is getting more autonomous: Duet handles background tasks across 6,000 apps while you're elsewhere, and the community is literally building hardware to manage the attention Claude Code demands. Second, that autonomy is generating real intellectual friction. The Relief Paradox piece and the monitorability policy paper both ask the same uncomfortable question: as Claude becomes more capable and more senior, who is actually in charge? Approval gates are a start, but they're not an answer.
