I wonder at what point someone is going to blindly mix ammonia and bleach because ChatGPT thinks it’s a good idea.

The Darwin Awards for blind LLM followers needs to be right around the corner at this rate.

> LLM advises to delete the Linux dynamic linker during a troubleshooting session

But this is a great advice. You can learn a lot of things, if you are stupid enough to delete your dinamic linker.

I don't see the link to the conversation with Claude in the Reddit thread. Did anyone find it?

While I think of myself as above this error, I can absolutely see myself falling for it. Messing with symlinks to dynamic libraries isn't uncommon and in the heat of a debugging session, the fact that I mess with the linker itself can go unnoticed. Of-course I would move it to a backup, but when accidentally also closing the last shell instance the problem amounts to the same.

Also the LLM output is so noisy, there are tons of shell commands, commands and a lot of useless text, which can easily make you miss the needle in the haystack what you are actually doing.
