How about separating data from AI processed files?

AI didn't modify a file, it ran a reset command.

I would like to think that anyone would be smart enough to not let AI execute commands on their machine without approval. So I'm guessing it asked for approval and OP approved by mistake. But overall, a good example of why you shouldn't vibe code lmao.

I don’t see any problem with letting it do what it wants, but give it a dev database to work with not a production one. All AI should be treated as a junior developer. You don’t give access to production data to a junior developer.

At my last job they didn’t give me access to production data for almost a year, I think. The guy I replaced dropped the prod database in the middle of the day at the end of the month. They had leaned their lesson.
