No one could ever remove the French language pack better than Grandma.

I mean, there's a 99% chance this is running in a container, and so worst case you kill that specific container, which is immediately spun up again

I don't think anyone thinks this actually worked right?

This post was also posted yesterday, but yeah, with ChatGPT you can execute random code. It is however in a VM of some sorts, so just trying to delete things won’t do that much.

It doesn’t kill the LLM instance, internally it just calls an API to run the generated code on a machine if you ask for it.

Surely using sudo in the prompt will not work anyway.

It's funny because you can tell whoever wrote this has never run that command. You need to either put --no-preserve-root OR /*. Using /* obviates the need for the flag --no-preserve-root.

I suppose, I figured most sysadmins had run it for funsies at least once...or a few times LOL.

It's as good as bind kill mouse1 being a protected command in valve consoles... aka not at all.

I compile my own version of rm so that it doesn't require the parameter.

Just in case I need to.

GPT fixes that internally 🤡

It's redundant but it still works; doing it that way does not imply they haven't actually used it.
