Anthropic 宣布其 AI 代理工具 Claude Cowork 将进行重大升级，用户不再需要保持电脑处于唤醒或开机状态，即可让该代理在背景持续运行并执行排程任务。

用户现在可以透过手机 App 或浏览器直接与 Cowork 互动，无需像以前那样依赖桌上型电脑的连线。这项更新反映了矽谷近期朝向「始终运行」且可透过简讯控制的半自主 AI 代理发展的趋势。

此功能将首先对每月 100 美元的 Max 方案订阅者进行测试，随后逐步推广给 Pro 方案用户。各大科技公司如 OpenAI 和 Google 也正积极将此类代理功能整合至现有的聊天机器人中，以简化普通用户的日常数位工作流程。

Anthropic announced a major upgrade to its AI agent Claude Cowork, allowing users to run scheduled tasks in the background without needing to keep their computers awake or active.

Users can now interact with Cowork directly through the smartphone app or browser without a desktop connection, reflecting a broader Silicon Valley trend toward always-running, semiautonomous AI agents.

The feature will roll out as a beta for Max subscribers at $100 a month before trickling down to Pro users, as tech giants compete to integrate agentic automation directly into consumer chatbot interfaces.
