> I'm a bit shocked to see so many negative comments here on HN. Yes, there are security risks and all but honestly this is the future. It's a great amplifier for hackers and people who want to get stuff done.

TBH this comment essentially reads as "other commenters are dumb, this is the future b/c I said so, get in line".

No, this doesn't need to be the future. There's major implications to using AI like this and many operations are high risk. Many operations benefit greatly from a human in the loop. There's massive security/privacy/legal/financial risks.

Dont worry. The same Bozos spoke like that to Steve Jobs and we all know who was a better predictor of the technology.. funnily enough it wasnt the guy who is deep into the technology but has a better understanding of people.

Which most technologists fundamentally lack, even if their ego says otherwise.

I certainly don't think people on HN are dumb, I'm surprised that the sentiment towards this is just talking so much about the downside and not the upside.

And look I do agree that humans should be the one responsible for the things they prompt and automate.

What I understand is that you let this lose in a folder and so backups and audits are possible.
