Anthropic’s new framework will let AI agents control hardware

Anthropic on Thursday launched the Model Hardware Standard , a new framework designed to enable the control of hardware using AI agents. With the new framework, AI agents will, for example, be able to operate robots or microscopess. The Model Hardware Standard could also be useful for developing new drugs or calibrating the laser in a quantum computer, according to Reuters . The company’s plan is to eventually release the new framework as open source, after it undergoes thorough testing.
