Everyone sucks here.
Anthropic, slopping out a "Claude-powered AI coding agent" and telling everyone it's safe.
Railway, making backups mutable and allowing them to be deleted with one API call.
And the idiot himself who, when things started going south, typed "DO NOT RUN ANYTHING.", prompting the model to reply. Rather than, oh, I don't know, maybe pulling the fucking plug?
It's the Swiss cheese failure cascade except there's more holes than cheese, if any cheese at all!
There was pure idiocy built into every layer of that company's infrastructure with no safeguards or peer review and they let an idiot run it unchecked!
you can use AI to line up the holes!
At last, it has a use!
The pretty much got the biggest idiot possible and gave it the keys of whole damned castle of cards.
It definitely rivals a post on /r/sysadmin over on Reddit late last year.
A guy was asking how to get back into their AD after a 'colleague' had moved users from 3 child domains in the forest to the main one then deleted the 3 domains but had chatgpt give them the commands which had subsequently locked everyone out of the entire domain!
People replied with suggestions but the first sentence everyone said was "Go and update your CV"!
Quite frankly the guy in this article should consider starting a business with whatever hobby he developed during the pandemic because IT is obviously not for him!
