#92So many of the replies are saying that they should've restricted access using .md files and whatnot. Is really any guarantee that they even follow those? It seems like even if you ask pretty please don't touch those files, there's a chance they will. So many people have just willingly installed spyware on their computers and big tech calls this the next big thing.
I don't understand these people. Agent instructions in markdown is barely a suggestion. I have one which says "All code in this repository is executed in docker containers, run the services with `docker compose run --rm php-cli "$@"`. Gemini and Claude more often than not refuse to abide and will try to execute the environment using /opt/homebrew/bin/php on my host…
LLMs will listen to you and follow your instructions and restrictions most of the time, which seems to be enough for people to believe that they will every time. I've come to terms with the impact slop coding will have on most software jobs in the future, but seeing seemingly intelligent people fall for lies and fantasies concocted by an LLM is making me more and more uncomfortable with the direction we're all heading in.

Your OS knows how to restrict access to things, you don't have to trust a pinkey promise from a vendor.Re: Grok CLI uploaded the whole home directory to GCS
#97I'm dying to have proper sandboxing in macOS. I installed ChatGPT, I asked it to list files in my user directory and it did. I never gave it permission, how could it? My terminal has access and honestly it shouldn't either.
your terminal shouldn't have access to your user directory? As in the files owned by you?
There are so many comments in here that are calling for nerfing something widely revered for giving us superpowers. Whether these are bots or not, they’re giving off NPC energy.
If they don’t want to use power tools because they accidentally cut off their finger, then they should just unplug their own power tools and stop clamoring for everybody else’s to be unplugged, too.
