But why would AI be required for that? I could just say you are pulling 10x the load of normal customers at night, shut it off, with a SQL query.

It's the shutting off power that's a problem, not the AI.

Externalizing of blame.

You'll catch shit for taking direct action yourself. But if your AI does it, without you telling it to..."oops!"

Tech is dead. Welcome to the age of social engineering.
