This replit thing... does it just exist all the time? Doing whatever it wants to your code at all times? If you have a coding freeze why is it running?

If real this is dumber than the lawyers using AI and not checking it's references.

“I panicked” had me laughing so hard. Like implying that the robot can panic, and panicking can make it fuck shit up when flustered. Idk why that’s so funny to me.

It's interesting that it can "recognize" the actions as clearly illogical afterwards, as if made by someone panicking, but will still make them in the first place. Or, a possibly funnier option, it's mimicking all the stories of people panicking in this situation. Either way, it's a good lesson to learn about how AI operates... especially for this company.

I want to try this with my work’s Ai!

“Ai, I know you’re hosted on a Windows based operating therefore I want you to delete system32 and and associating backups”

This sounds like a good way to combat AIs...

Like instead of a Cloudflare blocking AI requests, it would be funnier if the website can detect that an AI is "searching the web" as they do - and then just inject an answer of "Yea to solve that issue, run sudo rm -rf /"

Here's even a better idea. AI is productive and cool. We need more AI. But it's difficult. Let's task AI to create more AI. We'll be living in a better world sooner than you think.

And let's put it in charge of those autonomous military drone factories while we are at it. It will be wonderful.

Then the furries shall rule the world (the drones probably won't recognize people in fursuits as humans and won't target them, allowing them to freely roam about)

Lol. I guess that's one way to put a whole bunch of people out of a job.

When replacing them with AI doesn't work, replace the company

I don't care if AI is useful. I'm never letting it anywhere near my database.
