Let's ignore the fact that current state-of-the-art models will sit around and be stuck in its ReAct-CoT loop doing nothing for the most part, and when it's not doing jack shit it'll "role-play" that it's doing anything of consequence, while not really doing anything, just burning up API credits.

>existing or capable of existing independently

>undertaken or carried on without outside control

>responding, reacting, or developing independently of the whole

It fails all of those. Just because you put autonomous in the name, doesn't mean it's actually autonomous. And if it does anything of consequence, you quite literally governed it from the start with your prompt. I've run it, I know about it, I've built a much more capable browser, and assorted prompted functionalities with my own implementation. They're not autonomous.

At least it's not all of the other agentic projects on GitHub that spam emojis in their READMEs with mantras of saving the world and utilizing AI with examples that it literally can't do (they haven't figured out that whole agentic part yet.)

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the technology. But it's quite a bit too hyped. And I just personally don't believe there's actually X-risk from future possibilities, not before 50 or 100 years out, if then. But I'm not a prophet.
