I have to agree, this to me seems like a great in theory but questionable in practice.

We know how much damage a cli can do, they often don't have the protections in place most other systems. I mean if I copy files with AWS s3 there is zero confirmation that I am not overriding files.

Personally I feel like if you really want to use an LLM to generate your commands, the extra step of copying it from a website is probably a good one. At least you will be forced to actually look at it instead of just assume it is right and hit enter.

The example given in the document is a simple one, but with more complex CLI calls I would be scared to use this for anything but the simplest of things.

That is ignoring the questionable decision to possibly send very sensitive information to ChatGPT to generate these commands.
