My manager does this and with a straight face comes to me after with it and goes “put this in production” and wonders why it takes more than 5 minutes.

I absolutely hate the absolute rot these tools have caused to people’s brains.

Last week, we discovered our 'AI-native' marketing VP put his team's entire documentation hub on a public Github Pages site for an entire week. This included prospect lists, meetings, marketing metrics like CaC/lead times, funnel metrics, etc. He did not solicit feedback from engineering and violated multiple points in our AI policy. Of course there will be no repercussions.

We had a CSM vibe code a dashboard and put it on publically avaiable unauthenticated Firebase. Leaked a bunch of customer PII.

We fired him.

He’s suing for wrongful termination and…homophobia.

People are completely cooked. These tools are too powerful and normies are too stupid to use them responsibily.

I have to draw a very sharp line in generating these kinds of tools, I treat them as single use throwaway things and do my best to never have anyone besides myself even see the tools themselves (e.g. reviewing some calculation results).

Else I fully expect to get saddled with turning a temporary thing for a very narrow problem into something production ready.
