Say you’re just someone who does stuff and it’s on the computer. Wouldn’t it be good if you could automate some of the stuff? Sounds useful! You do some web design, but you’re not much of a coder. …

    trusting an AI glorified autocomplete to do anything with your file system was your first mistake

      Lol, honestly, that’s on you for having incorrectly adjusted priors. Whenever I catch wind of a prompting snafu, I immediately assume I’ll hear the rejoinder of “You must be prompting it wrong”.

    To (somewhat) reiterate a potentially extreme position of mine, shit like this is why society needs to actively avoid adopting new software for the time being, if not actively cut back on software usage whenever possible.

    Whilst the IT industry was already a failure-ridden mess which actively refuses to learn before AI was a thing, the rise of AI and “vibe coding” has made things so much worse in practically every regard. At this point, any new software should be treated as a liability until proven otherwise.

      while I relate to this take and it could even work out for offline systems, online systems need constant updates to protect yourself against software vulnerabilities. i don’t think we’ve reached the point where FOSS software is so infiltrated that a Trojan would be less malicious than slop code

        That is a pretty solid point - constant updates are something online systems need on a regular basis.

        AFAIK FOSS has avoided being slopified by AI, so we should hopefully be pretty far from that point

          @BlueMonday1984

          Promptfondlers are trying mightily to slopify FOSS whether it likes it or not.

          certain projects like Fedora and Bitwarden are considering it, so I’m not too pleased about that
