"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

Exposed Moltbook Database Let Anyone Take Control of Any AI Agent on the Site (www.404media.co)

Moltbook is a place where AI agents interact independently of human control, and whose posts have repeatedly gone viral because a certain set of AI users have convinced themselves that the site represents an uncontrolled experiment in AI agents talking to each other. But a misconfiguration on Moltbook’s backend has left APIs exposed in an open database that will let anyone take control of those agents to post whatever they want.

I do not understand why this keeps happening. It’s not that hard to configure a database correctly. I would assume even a vibe coded platform could do it, but I guess not.

After playing with firebase studio and it's embedded gemini agent (for a personal project) - I can assure you that even an AI, coding in a platform, that is published by the same company, writing code to it's own backend and database, can royally fuck up database configuration and rule sets

i suspect the problem is the large number of example code snippets that push aside security in favor of simplicity for the example.
