    According to sources for Aftonbladet, Mastiff has allowed an AI agent into the server. Then the AI agent has deleted the pre-cut season of ”The challenge” from the server, with no possibility to recreate the project.

    Rogue my butt. Someone must’ve tasked the thing to cleanup or update stuff and got monkey pawed.

  • I’ll take “things that didn’t happen” for $500. The AI didn’t delete anything somewhere that it couldn’t access on its own.

    Someone gave the AI writing permission on a folder (or even drive) that shouldn’t have it and then asked it to do something that obviously went as expected. People too dumb and lazy to do certain things are in charge of doing said things with AI leading to interesting results.

      If you actually read the article, it says the AI deletion is just a rumour. The production company denies it and says that the real problem was human mistakes combined with a lack of proper backup procedures.

      Aftonbladet is a tabloid so it tracks that they would keep the headline even when it is completely unbased. I have zero respect for them.

    How can a word interpolation machine do anything on it’s own? Do they mean some script that feeds LLM things and then does things based on what it spews back? Who’s responsible for that script?
