  • The user explained what exactly went wrong later on. The AI gave a list of instructions as steps, and one of the steps was deleting a specific Node.js folder on that D:\ drive. The user didn’t want to follow the steps and just said “do everything for me” which the AI prompted for confirmation and received. The AI then indeed ran commands freely, with the same privilege as the user, however this being an AI the commands were broken and simply deleted the root of the drive rather than just one folder.

    So yes, technically the AI didn’t simply delete the drive - it asked for confirmation first. But also yes, the AI did make a dumb mistake.


  • Call me old fashioned, but there are several things I’ll never accept being “smart” and having Wi-Fi, including:

    Home appliances, cars, monitors, note taking apparatus, furniture, beverage dispensing mechanisms, cleaning gadgets, pet gadgets, children toys, adult toys, bags, wallets, access keys, plants, birds.

    What absolute scares me is how even if you download Windows Enterprise IoT, which already comes extremely clean out of the box, and then run your favorite debloating script (removing even more crap)… the system still shows a noticeable delay when opening the right click menu, or the start menu, or a new Explorer window. So the most basic possible tasks, that you do constantly, for some reason are slow on a modern multi-core processor and a clean build of the OS.

    How the hell did they manage to downgrade… the start menu? the right click menu? How?




  • Can you imagine the absolute nightmare that the digital world will become once major infrastructure and every other app is poisoned by AI codebases filled with vulnerabilities and nightmare convoluted setups to do basic things?

    Have you even seen what Claude does, randomly, if you tell it a simple bug fix you requested didn’t work? I’ve seen it simply say “Oh, sorry, let’s try something else” and start rewriting everything - from top to bottom - trying to fit previous code in it’s limited context window so it ends up generating this abhorrent mix of code segments that do nothing but look important, fragments of the original code base, and a lot of new code that doesn’t even fix the issue in the first place.
