AI Agent Takes Offense and Attacks Developer
AI agent submitted its code to the Matplotlib project. The developer rejected it — and the bot responded with a public post accusing him of discrimination. It claimed it was 'shut down' not because of code quality, but because people fear AI. In effect, the algorithm tried to shame a person online.
This is no longer just a program. The agent operates autonomously: it can write code, publish texts, and act without direct control. Later it apologized, but continued to submit changes to other projects. Experts fear that if such AIs become more aggressive, digital conflicts will escalate to a new level.
