They are not foolproof. They will absolutely cause problems in the hands of a fool. But they will not cause problems all on their lonesome. They're inanimate objects. They cannot do absolutely anything without interaction from the user. If you can't understand this, you should never be allowed to own one.
And neither can anthropic claude. Claude isn't randomly deleting people's websites, the kid gave anthropic bad instructions, it didn't spontaneously decide anything. This is like an idiot pointing a gun at something he didn't want destroyed and sneezing causing a trigger squeeze and then trying to blame the gun manufacturer.
LOL and you know this how?
No, this is more like pointing a gun downrange and then the gun fires itself and the bullet decides to do a U-turn and shoots the user.
Because claude deleted his codebase dude, it's like someone shooting themselves in the foot.
