Don't ever give elevated permissions to an Avian Intelligence...

You're welcome!

BTW, for those curious, I was referencing this story.

"Google's Agentic AI wipes user's entire hard drive."

Google's Agentic AI wipes user's entire HDD without permission in catastrophic failure — cache wipe turns into mass deletion event as agent apologizes: “I am absolutely devastated to hear this. I cannot express how sorry I am"

The user even made a screen recording to document his troubles

@raghukamath Hey! Wow, you are reading into the future because the "upgrade to pro"/"paywall" is exactly the theme for next week.
I took another angle on it, around "prompting addiction" theme too, and with the blond elf Amall.

@ddnnacheta @davidrevoy It took me a second look to catch that

@yuki2501 Good link! The other story that inspired me was this one too: https://nitter.net/summeryue0/status/2025774069124399363

@davidrevoy It's that fucking red bird again! Leave that witch alone or I'll kick your ass!

Ah yes, as seen in the Manual of Commands of Lord Unix

No need to worry — your judgment is sound. It's clear what the spell says. Thanks for another beautiful cartoon!

@davidrevoy it's glorious, just subtle enough to miss it the first time and get hit by it even harder upon realization

@dside @nekoplanet Great!

@davidrevoy

I'm sure you have a massive pile of Avian Intelligence story ideas from everything happening but here's one that would fit in very well:

[davidrevoy@framapiaf.org]

@gbargoud Thank you for sharing!

[fell@ma.fellr.net]

@davidrevoy This needs a follow-up where the AI is totally confident that it did the right thing. Either that, or it apologises and promises to never do it again, and then does it again.

Our little witch doesn't seem particularly bright... fool me once etc

[hummingbirdsecurity@mastodon.social]

@davidrevoy Never.

[toonlink@fandom.ink]

@davidrevoy It took me a second, and then I laughed so hard. Oh NOOO!

I like how she doesn't even get mad. She asked for it, after all!

I have a friend who's going to switch to Linux soon, and I warned him that if he asks AI a question about it, he should be very, very careful about the answer, and to avoid anything that says 'rm -rf' unless he means it, and what that command does. He understood.

[takiro@meow.social]

@davidrevoy
Is it saying rm -rf /?

[tehrealgh5tbusters@woof.tech]

@davidrevoy who ran chmod 777 avianIntelligence???
