Source sentence: "Salesforce's Winter '27 release reached general availability today, and with it came a change that most coverage of the platform's new AI features will underplay: autonomous agents that can execute consequential CRM workflows are now running by default in every eligible Lightning Enterprise, Performance, Unlimited, and Developer Edition org — not because IT teams enabled them, but because Salesforce made that decision for them."

LR-2026-0223 · version 2 → 2
Retracted: The only source joins two unrelated reports (unintended actions by Claude in evaluations, and a claim of 75 intrusions) and does not tie them together, so no single event can be stated. Approved by Srini Iyer on 2026-10-21 in the corrections review.Srini Iyer

LR-2026-0098 · version 6 → 6
Retraction reason corrected on 2026-10-22: The sources do describe the wrongful-death suit over Adam Raine, but only in passing (a proposed law and an opinion piece), and the record mixed the law's facts into the case; it stays withdrawn until a source about the case itself is read.
