Truly is a brave new world we're in

-

I guess some people are upset at my brave new world characterization, but even as someone deriving value from Claude Code we've jumped the shark on AI in development.

The idea a natural request can get Claude to invoke potentially destructive actions on a timer is silly

https://code.claude.com/docs/en/scheduled-tasks#set-a-one-ti...

What would it cost if the /loop command was required instead of optional?

That's interesting man, that's pretty f***' interesting. I don't think I've seen it though. I've let it run for hours making changes overnight and I only do git operations manually.

Oh, but maybe allowing it to do remote git operations is a necessary trigger.

Prompt injection?

I was thinking surely scheduled tasks need to be explicitly invoked but nope: https://code.claude.com/docs/en/scheduled-tasks#set-a-one-ti...

Some people are upset at my brave new world characterization, but yeah even as someone deriving value from Claude Code we've jumped the shark on AI in development.

Either the industry will face that reality and recalibrate, or in 20 years we're going to look back on these days like the golden age of software reliability and just accept that software is significantly more broken than it was (we've been priming ourselves for that after all)

Feels like just yesterday that everyone agreed that critical code is read orders of magnitude more than written, so optimizing for quick writing is wrong.

People aren't upset about your characterization. Catch phrases, memes, or other low qualitative comments (with no context, elaboration or personal angle) are contrary to community ethos and down voted.

It’s a feature not a bug!

cool. if you choose to use a non-deterministic black box of bullshit, should you really be surprised when it shits all over your floor?

that must be a very powerful claude.md

Isn't this a natural consequence of how these systems work?

The model is probabilistic and sequences like `git reset --hard` are very common in training data, so they have some probability to appear in outputs.

Whether such a command is appropriate depends on context that is not fully observable to the system, like whether a repository or changes are disposable or not. Because of that, the system cannot rely purely on fixed rules and has to figure intent from incomplete information, which is also probabilistic.

With so many layers of probabilities, it seems expected that sometimes commands like this will be produced even if they are not appropriate in that specific situation. I guess, what I'm trying to say ... is this even a bug? Sounds like the model is doing exactly what it is designed to do.
