Yeah that advice is smoking crack. I have no idea what people are thinking these days? We seem to have lost any sensible security understanding recently.

You can't gaslight something into not doing something bad. There has to be a hard security control that prevents it doing something bad. And if you don't know what it's capable of because it's non-deterministic then you have to start with a default block everything. This should have never been possible with any sensible design.

On my first point again, ethics and engineering both went out of the window when fast and shiny came along. This is disgraceful.
