Anthropic releases safer Claude Code 'auto mode' to avoid mass file deletions and other AI snafus
Anthropic has released a preview of "auto mode" for Claude Code, a new feature designed to enhance AI safety by preventing actions like mass file deletions or data extraction. This mode acts as a middle ground between requiring approval for every action and allowing full autonomy, using a classifier to permit safe actions while redirecting risky ones. The update aims to reduce the likelihood of AI-induced errors, drawing parallels to a recent AWS outage caused by an AI tool.
