I ran an AI to audit my frontend code for fun. It suggested adding logging statements, which I implemented, out of curiosity.

I watched in amusment as the AI literally wrote an interface that didn't previously exist into the frontend to directly access my backend DB to target sensitive database information it couldn't otherwise access, wanting to log it for review. This was unnecessary and demonstrates why these tools are a tremendous threat to privacy, especially naive Bitcoin users in coming years. They are the threat you let in yourself.

I can only imagine how much private data and even private keys (most people aren't cypherpunks) will steadily leak into AI companies especially with the explosion of clueless vibe coders🤮
