depends on the source, but if it is open source and someone I trust I suppose the same amount of suspiciousness asa non vibe coded app?

its crazy I spent 30 years scrutinizing directory permissions, users, groups, iam roles...now people just use conversation to hand an AI agents access to their most sensitive data

It's easy to be dismissive of this guy's hubris. Already have a lot of comments in that regard!

I think it perfectly illustrates that even though an agent can give you the abilities, it's still up to the driver to make decisions.

In this case the CEO could have consulted someone with your expertise. Same ability, but vastly different experience.


This article screams “I’m a good target for spear phishing.”

why not switch to nntp?

beautiful illustration - serious question why do ppl still use dashboards? I've been using HA for almost 10 years now and the best part is that everything is automated and I don't have to touch anything.

How do you automate clothing too? My whole family always glance at the temperature and weather on the dashboard before we go out.

Do you automate music selection too? My music taste is very different depending on mood, not to mention my kids.

Or cameras?

I also automate lights but it's pretty nice to be able to control them manually too. Or just pause automations during winter/summer.

Granted I don't use a layout like OP but still.


> always glance at the temperature and weather on the dashboard before we go out.

Not everywhere has really unpredictable weather. And I have a garage at home and at work, and the garage leads directly into the building. I go to work without ever considering rain (though I do keep an umbrella in the car for when I have to go shopping, etc.).


our temp is on our thermostat and we use sonos / ha app for that. all my lights have lutron switches so if we want them on/off/dimmed we just use the lights.

i had a dashboard mounted to my wall for years we never touched it including me. only time i would open it was to check if it was still working lol


I think they have a web version of it running app.getartcraft.com

I'm ok with losing location bias. being from a small town and only having 50 ppl in our area code that werent long distance that knew about bbss meant 80% of them were crazy, old, or had weird/obscure interests. I did make a lot of friends during that era.

I expect that anything I type / dictate / post / purchase on the web be it a chat conversation with an AI, a post on social media, a dm, a blog post, a blockchain reference, or an assett in a bucket, will be manually reviewed and forwarded to the authorities. It is their duty to do so, and I am glad that they do. If this woman did harm someone we would be hearing "why didn't Anthropic do something about this."

You only accept this because you are part of a low trust society. I wonder if tech has done anything to improve trust among people or just lowered it.

Aren't high trust societies staying that way by kicking out the incorrigible violators? Pondering violence might not be treated lightly even in a high-trust society.

to be fair it is one of the top CMS's on the web (probably won't be in 2027) and its PHP / Mysql which in history have been very exploitable.


came here to say that also...its like 1 of 5 reasons I still use instagram, did not know he was on YT.


you are definitely thinking ahead. I really think the way things are going now users are going to demand to be able to consume their data the way they want to.
