    If you gave your AI permission to run console commands without check or verification, then you did in fact give it permission to delete everything.

      But for real, why would the agent be given the ability to run system commands in the first place? That sounds like a gargantuan security risk.

        Because “agentic”. IMHO running commands is actually cool, doing it without very limited scope though (as he did say in the video) is definitely idiotic.
