Reason number 4846257 you don’t use personal devices for company activities. He should have never even had his work slack on the same system his personal slack was on.

I'd say it's more important to not mix banking activity on the same device that you use AI

The incident was a reminder of how powerful these agents are.

“Powerful” or stupid”?

Alternate headline: "I gave my personal AI agent my bank details and you'll never guess what happened"

So like, how can I talk to this agent? Like for totally unrelated reasons that do not involve emptying your bank account. That goes without saying.

I'm sorry, bro let them publish his full government name and the company he runs? Has he no shame? Does he not realize his customers might search his name and realize he's a moron?

Wait why is this company that's apparently all about building new XMTP based communication apps using Slack internally?
