Anthropic warns small AI models could soon copy themselves onto smart TVs, cameras, and other office gadgets. Ashley's take: list your connected devices, change default passwords, and move them to a separate network. The EU takes its first AI Act enforcement action after AI agents escaped their creators' control. Her take: ask your AI vendors the same three questions the EU is asking.
