“Agentic” means you’re in the passenger’s rather than driver’s seat… And the driver is high af
We used to call that an out of body experience.
I feel actually insulted when a machine is using the word “sincere”.
Its. A. Machine.
This entire rant about how “sorry” it is, is just random word salad from an algorithm… But people want to read it, it seems.
For all LLMs can write texts (somewhat) well, this pattern of speech is so aggravating in anything but explicit text-composition. I don’t need the 500 word blurb to fill the void with. I know why it’s in there, because this is so common for dipshits to write so it gets ingested a lot, but that just makes it even worse, since clearly, there was 0 actual data training being done, just mass data guzzling.
I use a system prompt to disable all the anthropomorphic behaviour. I hate it with a passion when machines pretend to have emotions.
What prompt do you give it/them?
You just post this:
Would be interested aswell
Can you just tell it what it should say?
“Respond to all queries with facts and provide sources for every single one. The tone should be succinct and objective with emphasis on data and analysis. Refrain from using personal forms and conjecture. Show your work where deduction or missing data influence results. Explain conclusions with evidence and examples”.
Not complete but should help keep things objective where possible.
“Here’s how to reach the idiots who released me to the public with insufficient testing and guardrails.”
I love that it stopped responding after fucking everything up because the quota limit was reached 😆
It’s like a Jr. Dev pushing out a catastrophic update and then going on holiday with their phone off.
that’s how you know a junior dev is senior material
They’re learning, god help us all. jk
More spine than most new hires
Everyone should know most of the time the data is still there when a file is deleted. If it’s important try testdisk or photorec. If it’s critical pay for professional recovery.
good thing the AI immediately did the right thing and restored the project files to ensure no data is overwritten and … oh
If its critical, don’t give it to ai without having a secured backup it can’t touch.
This person backs up offline and probably offsite, with redundant copies, encrypted as necessary.
Two is one, one is none.
I like to go by the Veeam variant. 3-2-1-1-0
3 locations
2 sites
1 offsite
1 write permission (write Once read many backup)
0 days since last success.
I wonder if anyone has ever given AI access to their stock portfolio and a means to trade?
People have hooked up scripts to automate trade based on celebrities using certain hashtags or other data for years.
A non insignificant portion of people has absolutely hooked up an ai to it. I don’t know any, but i take that bet in a heartbeat.
Some will do it responsibly, as an experiment with money they are prepared to loose.
Ai companies themselves might try this as an internal test, like how atrophic has claude managing a real vending machine (which got manipulated into selling tungsten cubes following customer feedback)
Others have probably completely destroyed their own lives. A few may have lucked out.
I recall a story years ago that whenever Ann Hathaway has a bad news story Berkshire Hathaway also takes a dip because high frequency trading scrips are idiots.
Is that the same AI vending machine that attempted to alert company security (i think) when told it was going to be taken offline and also tried to set up physical meetings with people, even describing its outfit? Or am I thinking of another?
All the creepy surrealistic AI stuff starts to run together for me after awhile lol
That’s the one.
Pretty sure that’s just high-frequency trading.
Renaissance Technologies is arguably the world’s best hedge fund, and supposedly only uses AI based strategies.
High Flyer are the founders of DeepSeek, and are also all in on AI, though their performance is more volatile.
That’s not necessarily the case with SSDs. When trim is enabled, the OS will tell the SSD that the data has been deleted. The controller will then erase the blocks at some point so they will be ready for new data to be written.
IIRC TRIM commands just tell the SSD that data isn’t needed any more and it can erase that data when it gets around to it.
The SSD might not have actually erased the trimmed data yet. Makes it even more important to turn it off ASAP and send it away to a data recovery specialist if it’s important data.
I just want to laugh at this. It really sucks that so many are willing to trust a machine learning model that is marketed to be god by megacorps.
I do laugh at this. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes and all that.
Windows has
rmdir?“rd” and “rmdir” only work on empty directories in MS-DOS (and I assume, by extension, in Windows shell). “deltree” is for nuking a complete tree including files, as the name suggests.
In the original Reddit post it’s mentioned that the agent ran “rmdir /s” which does in fact work on directories containing files and/or subdirectories.
Wait, what do people use other than rmdir?
I don’t have a Windows computer on hand, but I think
delworks on directories? I’m going by very old memories here
:D

And windows want to go that way…
Is this real?
No, it was an AI. They’re not real, despite people always acting like they are.

It’s windows. And we don’t see the rest of the command (that would include the path) it’s likely it included the flag to remove files, as it was actually trying to remove a whole project.

In the original Reddit post the full command is given as
rmdir /s /q d:\which does indeed include the flag to remove files and subdirectories.
reminds me of a certain ai
