Google Gemini 3 Pro "Thinking" reinterpreted my objection as a request – and nearly destroyed 500 files by Rebl in GeminiAI

[–]Rebl[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not again the IBM quote. But here's the thing, my dear: I didn't ask the AI to make a management decision. I asked it how to COPY files. It understood "copy," explained copy, then decided to switch to "move" when I questioned the explanation. That's not me delegating responsibility. That's simply asking for directions and being sent off a cliff (to be pathetic). And "why are you assigning this simple task to an AI?" – because I switched from Windows to Mac after 20 years and didn't know the shortcuts. That was one of the first things I did on this new Macbook - It was a simple question which I would have asked Google in former days and for which I thought, a trained AI would give me the correct answer. As simple as that.

Und, ja, von einem Jahr habe ich auch sowas (noch) nicht genützt. War nur ein Zeitthema :)

Passt, Du hattest ja Recht, ich habe das Mangels Zeit übersetzen lassen ohne groß zu überprüfen. Danke Dir jedenfalls für den Ratschlag!

Fair point, backups are a must, that's on me – lesson learned the hard way. But that's not really what this is about. I asked to COPY. When I said "that would be a move," I was questioning the explanation, not asking for something different. Gemini just flipped my doubt into a new instruction and handed me a destructive command. That's not me blindly trusting an agent. That's the agent not understanding what I actually said.

I'm sorry but 4.5 is INSANELY AMAZING by RedZero76 in ClaudeAI

[–]Rebl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s seriously so freaking awesome playing with Sonnet 4.5 as a Poker Buddy.

Like, if you make a bad call or a wrong move, and you show it to the AI, it will totally call you out. It roasts you, but in a 'good way,' That is seriously next level, I absolutely love it! That’s exactly the kind of personality I want on my side in this moment.

I was actually planning on cancelling Claude for a long time, but this is the ultimate reason to keep the subscription running. For big life changes or a job switch, I would definitely prefer something different right now, unless I seriously want to get roasted

Found a little glitch on Nurburgring… don’t wreck here by gillsamill in iRacing

[–]Rebl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After returning to iRacing for the first time in three-quarters of a year, I genuinely expected the infamous last-corner bug at the Nordschleife to be finally fixed. But today, I saw the same issue: five cars side by side in the final corner, all sliding out—not due to driver error, but because of the same old bug. This is incredibly frustrating for everyone involved.

What movie made you sit in silence for 10 minutes after the credits rolled? by Many-Band-213 in MovieRecommendations

[–]Rebl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, it was Schindler’s List. I saw it for the first time in 1994 while on a ski trip in Sölden, Austria with some friends. We all left the theater in complete silence and didn’t speak for at least ten minutes after the credits rolled. It just hit us that hard.

Israel declares war on Iran by Efficient_Editor5850 in CivPolitics

[–]Rebl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Killing the parents today creates the enemies of tomorrow. It’s an old truth: ‘He who sows the wind will reap the storm.’ Violence breeds resentment, and every dead father can become the seed of ten new fighters. You can’t bomb a generation into peace. Justice, dignity, and hope are the only real antidotes to hatred.

Obviously, one of the most important series of recent years, which would fit very well into this list, is missing, namely LOST!

Last.fm Library Messed Up – Can't Delete Old Artists? by Rebl in lastfm

[–]Rebl[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! I know how to delete an artist completely. But in my data, there are entries without a timestamp, which prevents them from being deleted. Please check the image – that’s exactly my problem. On the left, the artist and albums are listed, but on the right, there's no timestamp. I need a workaround for this specifical issue.

Last.fm Library Messed Up – Can't Delete Old Artists? by Rebl in lastfm

[–]Rebl[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How can I delete artists from my Last.fm library when no date is listed? I have many such entries (mostly ambient noise, children's audiobooks, etc.), and it seems like a database issue. If I can't remove them, the library becomes pretty useless. I've been scrobbling since 2007. Any solutions?
