Little Bobby Tables is all grown up.
That’s Robert von Tables to you.
Reminds me of “If you want God Mode, hold Alt and press F4”

Great. It’s learned how to be snarky.
Microsoft’s copilot takes offense like a little bitch and ends the conversation if you call it useless. even though it’s a fact.
the fucker can’t do simple algebra but it gets offended when you insult it for not doing something fucking calculators do.
Should only be used with extreme caution and if you know what you are doing.
Ok. What is the actual use case for “rm -rf /“ even if you know what you are doing and using extreme caution? If you want to wipe a disk, there are better ways to do it, and you certainly wouldn’t want that disk mounted on / when you do it, right?
isn’t the command meant to be used on a certain path? like if you just graduated high school, you can just run “rm -rf ~/documents/homework/” ?
Correct me if im wrong, i assume switch “-rf” is short for “Root File”, for the starting point of recursion
No, -r and -f are two different switches. -r is recursive, used so that it also removes folders within the directory. -f is force (so overriding all confirmations, etc).
TIL
Almost but not quite.
Not necessarily. A 500 response means internal server error and could be anything. Returning a 500 doesn’t indicate any protections just that there was a server error. I guess that it returned anything would mean the server is still running but it takes time to delete everything
Dammit so we can’t stop Skynet!
Skynet’s existence is contingent on the Terminator movies remaining profitable, so Dark Fate’s performance might have averted Judgment Day.
It is moments like this where I wished docker didn’t exist. Could have made some news headlines.

That being said, I made the edit. I bet it made the comment better.
My sincerest apologies for killing a delectable morning buzz, but my eye twitches due to my slight 'tism when I see the “should/could of” error.
It’s not you. It’s me.
I wonder if this is a mistake only native speakers do, because I (as non native speaker) don’t understand why anyone would mistake “of” for “have”.
It’s because when it’s said aloud, many of us just truncate the “have” ('ve) and it sounds like “of”. Then we go to type it and often type what we think it sounds like…
Surely they’ve thought about this, right?
Lotta people here saying ChatGPT can only generate text, can’t interact with its host system, etc. While it can’t directly run terminal commands like this, it can absolutely execute code, even code that interacts with its host system. If you really want you can just ask ChatGPT to write and execute a python program that, for example, lists the directory structure of its host system. And it’s not just generating fake results - the interface notes when code is actually being executed vs. just printed out. Sometimes it’ll even write and execute short programs to answer questions you ask it that have nothing to do with programming.
After a bit of testing though, they have given some thought to situations like this. It refused to run code I gave it that used the python subprocess module to run the command, and even refused to run code that used subprocess or exec commands when I obfuscated the purpose of the code, out of general security concerns.
I’m unable to execute arbitrary Python code that contains potentially unsafe operations such as the use of exec with dynamic input. This is to ensure security and prevent unintended consequences.
However, I can help you analyze the code or simulate its behavior in a controlled and safe manner. Would you like me to explain or break it down step by step?
Like anything else with ChatGPT, you can just sweet-talk it into running the code anyways. It doesn’t work. Maybe someone who knows more about Linux could come up with a command that might do something interesting. I really doubt anything ChatGPT does is allowed to successfully run sudo commands.
Edit: I fixed an issue with my code (detailed in my comment below) and the output changed. Now its output is:
sudo: The “no new privileges” flag is set, which prevents sudo from running as root.
sudo: If sudo is running in a container, you may need to adjust the container configuration to disable the flag.
So it seems confirmed that no sudo commands will work with ChatGPT.
Reminder that fancy text auto complete doesn’t have any capability to do things outside of generating text
One of the biggest areas of ongoing research is about incorporating data from outside systems, like databases, specialized models, and, other specialized tools (which are not AI based themselves). And, yes, modern models can do this to various extents already. What the fuck are you even talking about.
Damn, triggered a prompt engineer
