One critic called the move “petulance beyond measure.”
Incorrect. The app detects nothing. The AI agents are the ones doing all the detection and deletion.
True but the app asks the agent to do it. But tbf you should back up your code before you entrust it to a third party.
And if I ask you to smash your computer, it’s still on you for carrying it out.
Well, nobody smashes their computer knowingly
Neither does the agent know what it’s doing. That’s my point: agentic AI is made to carry out commands, but it doesn’t really have a semantic understanding of what that command entails. It just picks up the hammer and swings it.
Arguably, you shouldn’t entrust your computer to someone who will thoughtlessly destroy it just because someone else told them to. In the same vein, trusting an agent with your code is reckless because it might do dumb shit to it.
While that mostly doesn’t happen, I do agree that it is better to back your code up in a location AI doesn’t have access to.
