Microsoft has added Anthropics Clawed Co-Work technology to copilot, launching copilot co-work to run more autonomous tasks in Microsoft 365.

Users stated desired outcome, and co-work builds a plan that runs in the background, accessing emails, meetings and files from outlook, teams, and Excel.

Examples include calendar cleanup, meeting preparation, and company research.

Co-work asks follow-ups when unclear, and waits for approval before changes.

It operates within Microsoft 365 Security and Compliance, and is in a limited research preview, with wider Frontier program access planned at the end of March 2026.

Clawed co-work builds on Anthropics Clawed Code Principles. OpenAI does not yet offer comparable software.

A Boston Consulting Group survey of 1,488 US workers finds that monitoring multiple AI tools causes acute cognitive exhaustion, dubbed AI Brain Fry.

People report a buzzing head, mental fog, slower decisions, and headaches.

One engineer said he spent more effort managing tools than solving problems.

Those with high monitoring used 14% more mental energy, reported 12% more fatigue, and 19% more information overload.

Productivity rises from 1 to 2 tools, peaks at 3, and falls after 4.

Decision fatigue, errors, and intent to quit increase.

Researchers recommend caps on simultaneous AI agents, and not tying productivity metrics to AI.

Data are self-reported.

Add break.

Millions use chatbots like chat GPT for retirement planning, the Financial Time says.

A Lloyd survey found over half of Britons use AI for finance.

A November witch test rated common chatbots just 55 to 71%.

It is pushed pension firms like Scottish widows to build tools.

John builton of JP Morgan warns, people may assume they know what they do not,

and that using AI for investing can reinforce biases like holding too much cash or overtrating.

A 41 year old engineer told the FT chat GPT reallocated his $200,000 portfolio to 80% in an index tracker

and the rest in a bond ETF and helped him follow through.

10 has added an iOS toggle that says it will block modifications by GROC, but the protection is limited.

The switch only prevents tagging at GROC and replies to a new upload.

The tagging route that was abused to undress photographs in early January,

and it also blocks that reply route for paying premium subscribers.

The control does not appear on the web or on older posts.

Other editing methods still work.

Holding down a protected image can open the edit image with GROC flow,

and saving and re-uploading an image removes the blocker.

The feature has not been announced and X has been asked for comment.

That was the AI News of the day.
