Dep (@0xDepressionn) “letting AI run your computer with no rules is f*cking insane... it tried to wipe” — TopicDigg

letting AI run your computer with no rules is f*cking insane... it tried to wipe out weeks of my work twice. once it went for my passwords. one small file stopped it every time and while i slept it still did the actual job. wrote code, tested it, saved it, sent it for my review. i woke up to finished work, not a disaster most people use AI agents one of two ways, and both are wrong: -> they babysit it, clicking "approve" 100 times a day -> or they give it full control and pray the third way is a rulebook it reads before it starts: can do alone -> read, write code, run tests, save progress must ask me first -> publish, install anything new never, no matter what -> delete everything, overwrite history, touch passwords and keys, send data out the "never" list always wins. thats the whole point when nobody is watching this matters more every week. openai, anthropic, everyone is shipping AI that runs on its own for hours the rulebook matters more than the prompt. the exact file is in the article below
