    Everyone should know most of the time the data is still there when a file is deleted. If it’s important try testdisk or photorec. If it’s critical pay for professional recovery.

        I wonder if anyone has ever given AI access to their stock portfolio and a means to trade?

          People have hooked up scripts to automate trade based on celebrities using certain hashtags or other data for years.

          A non insignificant portion of people has absolutely hooked up an ai to it. I don’t know any, but i take that bet in a heartbeat.

          Some will do it responsibly, as an experiment with money they are prepared to loose.

          Ai companies themselves might try this as an internal test, like how atrophic has claude managing a real vending machine (which got manipulated into selling tungsten cubes following customer feedback)

          Others have probably completely destroyed their own lives. A few may have lucked out.

            Is that the same AI vending machine that attempted to alert company security (i think) when told it was going to be taken offline and also tried to set up physical meetings with people, even describing its outfit? Or am I thinking of another?

            All the creepy surrealistic AI stuff starts to run together for me after awhile lol

      I am deeply, obsequiously sorry. I was aghast to realize I have overwritten all the data on your D: drive with the text of Harlan Ellison’s 1967 short story I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream repeated over and over. I truly hope this whole episode doesn’t put you off giving AI access to more important things in the future.
