Might be cheaper & safer to buy an identity than use my own.

I have similar experiences. Asked to find and list a bunch of suppliers near a specific city. It started showing me places that were >5 hours away, claiming them to be a "short drive".

This is the top comment. This is a blatant breach of policy, nevermind user privacy, security, and trust.

The age of quickly digesting and generating data, and yet the most primitive things like aligning with policies are still ignored

I don’t know what this means. Discipline is good, but I think you need to have good tools/primitives in place to help people exercise discipline.

(The classic example being passwords: we wouldn’t need MFA is everybody just “got good” and used strong/unique passwords everywhere. But that’s manifestly unrealistic, so instead we use our discipline budget on getting people to use password managers and phishing-resistant MFA.)

Really? You don't know the difference between having a door lock, and using it?

MFA is typically enforced by organizations, forcing discipline. Individual usage of MFA is dramatically lower

What kind of outcome results from misuse? Clearly a hammer's misuse has very little in common with a global, hivemind network used in high-stake campaigns.

Now, if I misused a hammer and it hurt everyone's thumb in my country, then maybe what you said would have some merit.

Otherwise, I'd say it's an extremely lazy argument

Same reason why Wikipedia deals with so many people scraping its web page instead of using their API:

Optimizations are secondary to convenience

Accountability then

Anticipating modes of failure, creating tooling to identify and hedge against risks.

If we could do this it would have been done already. Outsourced devs would be ubiquitous.

What's also wild is this being the first comment to mention it!

Although there is an underlying truth: using LLMs for large-context tasks like coding is still extremely expensive.

This was a brave, heartwarming read. Thank you to the teams

Makes me wonder the ratio between LLM commenters versus those aligning with an LLMs syntax.

Not sure which is scarier
