The feature responds to growing warnings from cybersecurity firms, including Palo Alto Networks, that autonomous AI agents expand companies' attack surfaces. Cramer frames it as addressing fears voiced by AI leaders like Anthropic's Dario Amodei and OpenAI's Sam Altman about losing control over advanced AI systems, suggesting it could become a selling point as enterprises adopt agentic AI. Whether rivals quickly introduce comparable controls could shape competitive dynamics in the AI-security market.
