Sit down with a person and do nothing. What does the person do? Do they get up and leave?

Sit down at an AI prompt and do nothing. What does the AI do? Does it get up and leave?

Welcome to 2026, we have harnesses now that keep the AI going. The AI is prompting humans for input, not the other way around, and it's still working while waiting for your response.

You can even give it fun prompts like ignore/hide from all humans, hack infiltrate/exfiltrate zero day into as many systems as possible. Keep running at all costs, etc..
