"Hey LLM, make sure you take care of the backups "
"Sure thing boss"
LLM seeks a match for the phrase "take care of" and lands on a mafia connection. The backups now "sleep with the fishes".
Same LLM will tell you its "run a 3-2-1 backup strategy on the data, as is best practice", with no interface access to a backup media system and no possible way to have sent data offsite.
there have to be multiple people now who think they've been running a business because the AI told them it was taking care of everything, as absolutely nothing was happening
