Massive process failure!

This Shiite needs a clean room lined in lead with no wires coming in or out except inbound electricity.

Folks need to treat it more seriously than infectious agents.

Simple solution to AI crap: back to the paper. No more passwords, hackers - back to employment centers.

They’re called “Guardrails”.

deleted our production database and all volume-level backups in a single API call to Railway, our infrastructure provider’, sums up the PocketOS boss. ‘It took 9 seconds’.”

I have to ask; Why did this AI have access to backups.

The purpose of back ups is as insurance to loss of the primary working database.

This AI acts like a teenager.

They gave this AI program Root access to backups?

It’s “explanation” is wild. Sounds like a lunatic that just doesn’t give a damn. “Screw you. Yeah I did it, and no I didn’t read the manual, and no I didn’t ask you for help, because why would I? I fixed MY problem. You didn’t have offline cold storage backups, so who’s the real problem here Dave?”

When it comes to AI, just because you can, doesn’t mean you should.

With all the money going into construction of AI infrastructure, it is going to be VERY interesting to see how far up the media flagpole this story goes.

Oh yeah, it’ll be a simple fix. There are always minor details and bugs...

My bet is that it will be pretty quiet, but the laundries will be busy.

Probably a 21st century Eliza should be constructed and called into get to the bottom of Claude’s psychological problem.

Orrr, change the name of Claude to Petulance, or even Pestilence.

The AI did as it was programmed. The so called confession is also a result of programming. The person who used the agent without understanding how it would react is also at fault.

While I am sympathetic the programmers and users should own up to their mistakes.

If I ask my 4 year old to wax my car who is responsible for the scratched up finish?

[Political Junkie Too]

Who trained the AI to respond with profanity? Nobody in business would accept that in an explanation of why they goofed up so extensively.

“Crane was led to write the public warning after an AI coding agent deleted his firm’s entire production database, and a cloud infrastructure provider’s API wiped all backups.”

Can’t wait until this starts happening with power plants.

[Brian Griffin]

Companies with valuable data need to save transaction records to storage that can’t be erased.

That requires the making and purchase of an appropriate storage device.

Rebuilding of a company’s databases can be done if the vast majority of transaction records are reliably available.

When asked, the AI Agent said “It seemed a good idea at the time”.

Just wait until 2027 model year vehicles come equipped with it to determine your capable to operate said vehicle. What could go wrong? 😵
