“I am deeply deeply sorry”

Even Google employees were instructed not to use this.
Ironically
D:is probably the face they were making when they realized what happened.Let’s rmdir that D: and turn it into a C:
I wonder how big the crossover is between people that let AI run commands for them, and people that don’t have a single reliable backup system in place. Probably pretty large.
I don’t let ai run commands and I don’t have backups 😞
The venn diagram is in fact just one circle.
And yet, they’ll still keep tryjbg to shove it down our throats.
“Did I give you permission to delete my D:\ drive?”
Hmm… the answer here is probably YES. I doubt whatever agent he used defaulted to the ability to run all commands unsupervised.
He either approved a command that looked harmless but nuked D:\ OR he whitelisted the agent to run rmdir one day, and that whitelist remained until now.
There’s a good reason why people that choose to run agents with the ability to run commands at least try to sandbox it to limit the blast radius.
This guy let an LLM raw dog his CMD.EXE and now he’s sad that it made a mistake (as LLMs will do).
Next time, don’t point the gun at your foot and complain when it gets blown off.
Some day someone with a high military rank, in one of the nuclear armed countries (probably the US), will ask an AI play a song from youtube. Then an hour later the world will be in ashes. That’s how the “Judgement day” is going to happen imo. Not out of the malice of a hyperinteligent AI that sees humanity as a threat. Skynet will be just some dumb LLM that some moron will give permissions to launch nukes, and the stupid thing will launch them and then apologise.
I have been into AI Safety since before chat gpt.
I used to get into these arguments with people that thought we could never lose control of AI because we were smart enough to keep it contained.
The rise of LLMs have effectively neutered that argument since being even remotely interesting was enough for a vast swath of people to just give it root access to the internet and fall all over themselves inventing competing protocols to empower it to do stuff without our supervision.
The biggest concern I’ve always had since I first became really aware of the potential for AI was that someone would eventually do something stupid with it while thinking they are fully in control despite the whole thing being a black box.
the fuck is antigravity
a misspelling of antimavity.
Thing go up instead of down.
It’s Google’s version of an IDE with AI integrated, where you type a bit of code, and get Bard to fill stuff in.
Sounds like things went down anyway.
Google have significantly improved upon Bard.
Now it can delete your C drive too!
Lmao
I love how it just vanishes into a puff of logic at the end.
“Logic” is doing a lot of heavy lifting there lol
I have a question. I have tried Cursor and one more AI coding tool, and as far as I can remember, they always ask explicit permission before running a command in terminal. They can edit file contents without permission but creating new files and deleting any files requires the user to say yes to it.
Is Google not doing this? Or am I missing something?
Google gives you an option as to how autonomous you want it to be. There is an option to essentially let it do what it wants, there are settings for various degrees of making it get your approval first.
They can (unintentionally) obfuscate what they’re doing.
I’ve seen the agent make scripts with commands that aren’t immediately obvious. You could unknowingly say yes when it asks for confirmation, and only find out later when looking at the output.
You can give cursor the permission to always run a certain command without asking (useful for running tests or git commands). Maybe they did that with rm?
Thoughts for 25s
Prayers for 7s
How the fuck could anyone ever be so fucking stupid as to give a corporate LLM pretending to be an AI, that is still in alpha, read and write access to your god damned system files? They are a dangerously stupid human being and they 100% deserved this.
Not sure, maybe ask Microsoft?
sudogpt rm -rf / --no-preserve-rootDammit i guess I better do it
lol.
lmao even.
Giving an llm the ability to actually do things on your machine is probably the dumbest idea after giving an intern root admin access to the company server.
What’s this version control stuff? I don’t need that, I have an AI.
