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.
I am deeply, obsequiously sorry. I was aghast to realize I have overwritten all the data on your D: drive with the text of Harlan Ellison’s 1967 short story I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream repeated over and over. I truly hope this whole episode doesn’t put you off giving AI access to more important things in the future.
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 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.

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?
That is most trading by volume, but it’s not using LLMs.

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.
