what a fucking shitshow.

what a fucking shitshow.

[peter@thepit.social]

Peter Steinberger is a great example of how AI is catnip very specifically for middle-aged tech guys. they spend their 20s and 30s writing code, burn out or do management stuff for a decade, then come back in their late 40s/50s and want to try to throw that fastball again. Claude Code makes them feel like they still got it.

lol everything is happening because the Silicon Valley guys got old and are having a midlife crisis.

@peter

Lol. Love how he is treating it like some entity he's powerless over. Just kill it, dude. Now, before the lawsuits catch up.

I pulled the skill to load moltbot this morning and it's a mile long. The whole place is a giant prompt injection playground.

@peter don’t let things get in the way of growth. Btw, ways to control growth: charge money, create a pathway to do X things by making users wait and earn their promotion to new functionality. It’s growth, 🤯growth, 💣growth baby before the AI 🧨crash 💥

@TheServitor 😂

[mk30@tilde.zone]

@peter he made a malware distribution tool and he's handwringing about whether to turn it off. Lol. Lmao.

@peter vibe coding at its finest.

"In today's fast-moving agile high-performance AI-driven competitive landscape, we simply have to accept one or two malware applications on each of our systems. Don't worry, the competition has them too."

/s

I already have some great ideas for startups:

"Hosted OpenClaw": Like OpenClaw, but hosted in the cloud, monitored, only allowed to run verified skills, token spending limits and so on. Of course we sell your data.

"AI Antivir": A malware scanner for your AI deployment. Guaranteed to prevent an attack once in a blue moon.

[peterrenshaw@ioc.exchange]

@wakame the “hosted” bit is a difficult problem given the platform is permissive. One good business would be to quantify the AI token cost and consult to reduce them.

@peter like all divorced dads, they were too self absorbed to notice that their wife (or QA department or line manager or PM) was doing all the hard work to protect them and their families from their own bad decisions

@peter this is goddamned spectacular

@peter “Do I look like I have time to clean up all these loaded guns I left lying around”

[suzannealdrich@hachyderm.io]

@peter oh my GAWD I am here for this. 🍿

[scotscot@social.tchncs.de]

@peter i dont know why he wouldnt just have his own moltbot or whatever review it? You can infinitely scale your productivity with more mac minis

[indigoparadox@mastodon.social]

@TheServitor @peter But... But... The innovation!

[dvshkn@social.treehouse.systems]

@peter "I don't have a magical team that verifies user generated content."

Just use clawdbot /s

[jaredwhite@indieweb.social]

@peter @suzannealdrich Totally. If I had a dime for every tale of "I'd almost forgetten how to code it's been so long maaaan, what with my 7-figure VP job in Santa Clara and all…but then I picked up Claude Code and now I'm releasing 80 new apps every hour. This is the greatest thing in the history of mankind!"
……

🤦🏻‍♂️

[enthraxxx@h4.io]

@peter And it took barely a week or 2 between this dogshit AI "automaton" was released, alerts that this exact sort of abuse could be pushed and it happening.
The more I hear about AI, the less I understand the concept of FOMO.
I am definitely not missing out on anything.

[eruwero@ieji.de]

@enthraxxx @peter you're missing out on all the malware
