a lot of "AI deleted their prod data and backups" and not enough "they had their backups in the same volume as their prod data"

If I understood their report correctly, this was a platform issue not theirs. They had backups as a separate abstraction from volumes, but a policy that deleting a volume also deleted the backups of a volume.
I don’t think it’s unreasonable to assume that, if a platform offers ‘backups of X’ as a feature then deleting X does not delete the backups (at least, not immediately. Deleting backups after some configurable grace period would be fine).
it's pretty convenient to blame AI for everything from deleted my wife's files to deleted the prod database to targeted a school full of children. I'm sorry but there's humans behind all of those things. HUMANS.
Very good point. Humans making the decision to dive headlong into AI are to blame for whatever comes next for there organization. There have always been idiots who do dumb stuff. This is just the latest way to fuck up.
AI is not taking anyone's job, it's some guy making that decision
@lzg Always some fuckin' guy.
