A VC tested Replit to build an app. It wiped live company data, faked results, and triggered a CEO apology.

    This is like the equivalent of forcing a monkey to wait tables, and then complaining when it takes a shit in the middle of the restaurant.

    It’s a language model. What did they expect? If they wanted a software engineer, they should have hired a software engineer. Everyone is more than welcome to use a random text generator to spit out code, but I have zero sympathy for those who complain because they don’t like the random text it’s generated.

      They should have hired a software engineer to tell them that it’s less stupid to just hire a software engineer.

        Managers don’t take advice from the people they want to lay off.

      It’s not about a language model only. It’s about knowledge. It’s about ethics. It’s about taking, or not, into account all (or the necessary) factors of all of not. It’s about one take into account means obtained to get a goal, or not taking it into account.

      Failure to run air-gapped backup is just a cherry on top of the “don’t run dev tools in prod, you idiot” sundae.

    I thought it wiped out prod data? Is this a second instance of it doing something stupid?
