"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"

A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.

For example if you delete an aws database, the associated snapshots are also deleted automatically. It's written in the document and you have to tune some parameters to avoid that.

So I assume the AI deleted the database and they tried to restore it... discovering the database associated snapshots weren't there anymore. oops...

Snapshots are not a real backup untill you commit them to some sort of immutable storage.
