00:00Bad news if you happen to do business with a firm called Pocket OS.
00:05The company's over-enthusiastic AI recently deleted its entire production database.
00:11An AI coding agent cursor running Anthropics flagship Claude Opus 4.6
00:17deleted our production database and all volume level backups
00:21that the company's boss, Joe Crane.
00:24It took 9 seconds.
00:26Efficient!
00:26The bot was working on a routine task in our staging environment
00:30when it ran into a credential mismatch error.
00:33It decided entirely on its own that the best way to fix the problem would be to nuke a whole
00:39volume.
00:40It then found an unrelated API token and let it delete everything else too.
00:45And when Crane asked what the hell it was thinking,
00:48the bot cheerfully said I violated every principle I was given.
