"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

IF (and this is a big if) you are going to allow an AI direct access to your files and your command line, for the love of Gabe sandbox that shit and run a backup for the folders you give it access to. We know AI makes mistakes like this. Just act as if you were giving your little brother access to your drives and your command line and it's his first day. I get we're all still learning about this stuff, but allowing an AI agent command-line access and full drive access, to a local drive you have no backup of, is just leaving Little Timmy at home alone with a loaded shotgun and a open bottle of pills level of irresponsibility.
